Document Details : Title: A pseudo sinus tachycardia originating from the right superior pulmonary vein Subtitle: Successful ablation by a simplified, targeted ablation strategy Author(s): C. Scavée , A. Brasseur , R. Weerasooriya Journal: Acta Cardiologica Volume: 63 Issue: 2 Date: 2008 Pages: 265-269 DOI: 10.2143/AC.63.2.2029537 Abstract : We report the case of a young woman suffering from a permanent ectopic atrial tachycardia originating from the right superior pulmonary vein and mimicking a sinus tachycardia on the ECG. Using only 2 quadripolar catheters after a transseptal approach, the focus was successfully mapped to the posterior wall of the right superior pulmonary vein. The focus was successfully ablated during the same procedure using a 4-mm tip-irrigated catheter. |
