During VT in two cases with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, entrainment criteria, constant fusion beats except for the last entrainment beat, progressive fusion, and a localized conduction block associated with interruption of VT, were demonstrated with rapid ventricular pacing performed during VT. Furthermore, a long conduction interval was present during entrainment from the pacing site to the earliest activation site during VT, indicating the presence of a slow conduction area. VT in these cases was, thus, due to reentry with an area of slow conduction within the circuit.

D002036 Bundle of His Small band of specialized CARDIAC MUSCLE fibers that originates in the ATRIOVENTRICULAR NODE and extends into the membranous part of the interventricular septum. The bundle of His, consisting of the left and the right bundle branches, conducts the electrical impulses to the HEART VENTRICLES in generation of MYOCARDIAL CONTRACTION.

D006327 Heart Block Impaired conduction of cardiac impulse that can occur anywhere along the conduction pathway, such as between the SINOATRIAL NODE and the right atrium (SA block) or between atria and ventricles (AV block). Heart blocks can be classified by the duration, frequency, or completeness of conduction block. Reversibility depends on the degree of structural or functional defects.
