Repetitive monomorphic ventricular tachycardia with a morphology of inferior axis and left bundle branch block pattern in patients without structural heart disease commonly originates from the right ventricular outflow tract. We report the case of a 22-year-old man with an incessant, monomorphic ventricular tachycardia with a similar morphology originating from the left coronary cusp, which was confirmed by perfect pace mapping, local ventricular activation preceding the onset of QRS by 25 mse, and eliminated by a single delivery of low-energy (11 W) radiofrequency currents.

D015716 Electrocardiography, Ambulatory Method in which prolonged electrocardiographic recordings are made on a portable tape recorder (Holter-type system) or solid-state device ("real-time" system), while the patient undergoes normal daily activities. It is useful in the diagnosis and management of intermittent cardiac arrhythmias and transient myocardial ischemia.

D017115 Catheter Ablation Removal of tissue with electrical current delivered via electrodes positioned at the distal end of a catheter. Energy sources are commonly direct current (DC-shock) or alternating current at radiofrequencies (usually 750 kHz). The technique is used most often to ablate the AV junction and/or accessory pathways in order to interrupt AV conduction and produce AV block in the treatment of various tachyarrhythmias.

D017180 Tachycardia, Ventricular An abnormally rapid ventricular rhythm usually in excess of 150 beats per minute. It is generated within the ventricle below the BUNDLE OF HIS, either as autonomic impulse formation or reentrant impulse conduction. Depending on the etiology, onset of ventricular tachycardia can be paroxysmal (sudden) or nonparoxysmal, its wide QRS complexes can be uniform or polymorphic, and the ventricular beating may be independent of the atrial beating (AV dissociation).
