Radiofrequency catheter ablation of idiopathic ventricular tachycardia originating in the anterior fascicle of the left bundle branch.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:A male patient with an atriofascicular pathway underwent catheter ablation of the atriofascicular pathway during atrial fibrillation. METHODS AND RESULTS:The patient had preexcited atrial fibrillation both clinically and repeatedly during electrophysiologic study. A preexcited tachycardia with a 1:1 AV re...
