Successful catheter ablation of ventricular premature complexes from the right atrial side of the atrioventricular septum with good contact force

Successful catheter ablation of ventricular premature complexes from the right atrial side of the atrioventricular septum with good contact force

Abstract The acquisition of good contact force for radiofrequency catheter ablation of ventricular premature complexes (VPCs) originating from the basal septum of the left ventricle (LV) is often difficult. We describe a case of VPCs originating from the basal septum of the LV, which were successful...
