Resumen

CHAVEZ GONZALEZ, Elibet et al. Mapping and successful ablation, from within the great cardiac vein, of premature ventricular contractions originating from the summit of the left ventricle. CorSalud [online]. 2019, vol.11, n.2, pp.161-166. ISSN 2078-7170.

The case of a 43-year-old female patient is presented, with an apparent history of good health, up to several weeks prior to admission, when she began to present syncopes preceded by palpitations. An electrophysiological study was performed and prematurity in the distal portion of the coronary sinus recording electrode was demonstrated, which corresponds to the great cardiac vein (anterior interventricular vein) and summit of the left ventricle. Despite the excellent early registration, neighboring structures were studied, such as the left ventricular outflow tract in the left coronary cusp, here the pace mapping was not totally concordant. At the site of the precocity obtained within the cardiac venous system, a 100% concordant mapping was achieved, with an ablation catheter’s precocity of -30 milliseconds. The ablation was decided with progressive increases in temperature and power with thermomapping and the success of the ablation was achieved without reproducibility of the arrhythmia and excellent subsequent evolution.
