Successful radiofrequency ablation of ventricular premature contractions within the coronary sinus

Pacing Clin Electrophysiol. 2005 Nov;28(11):1250-2. doi: 10.1111/j.1540-8159.2005.50170.x.

Abstract

This case report describes frequent ventricular premature contractions (VPCs) originating from an epicardial site of the basal posteroseptal ventricle. Detailed pace-mapping using a high output pacing stimulator was utilized to successfully ablate VPCs within the coronary sinus.
