Successful left coronary cusp cryoablation in an adolescent with premature ventrıcular extrasystoles-associated cardiomyopathy

Ventricular arrhythmias arising from coronary cusps are not uncommon. However, the mapping and ablation of outflow tract ventricular arrhythmias originating from aortic cusps can be challenging. Radiofrequency ablation of this area can cause rare but serious complications. This was a report of a 17-...
