Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) causes episodes of a fast heartbeat. 'Thumping heart' sensations (palpitations) and other symptoms may occur during each episode. Regular medication can prevent episodes of SVT. Another treatment option in some cases is to destroy a tiny part of the heart that triggers the SVT.

Hematologist-Oncologists specialize in cancer and blood disorders. More in Rare Diseases. A hematologist-oncologist is a doctor with special training diagnosing and treating blood diseases and blood cancers such as iron-deficiency anemia, hemophilia, sickle-cell disease, leukemia, and lymphoma. Hematologist-oncologists are trained in both hematology, the study of blood, and oncology, the study of cancer. Oncologists usually have some expertise and proficiency in the management of solid tumors like breast cancer. Some hematologist-oncologists become stem cell transplantation experts.
