Ventricular arrhythmias originating from different portions of the communicating vein of the left ventricular summit: electrocardiographic characteristics and catheter ablation

Idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias (IVAs) arising from different portions of the communicating vein of the left ventricular summit (summit-CV) are not a rare phenomenon. Whereas its electrocardiographic (ECG) and electrophysiological characteristics are not fully investigated. This study aimed to id...

Description
Summary:Idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias (IVAs) arising from different portions of the communicating vein of the left ventricular summit (summit-CV) are not a rare phenomenon. Whereas its electrocardiographic (ECG) and electrophysiological characteristics are not fully investigated. This study aimed to identify distinct ECG and electrophysiological features of IVAs originating from different portions of summit-CV. Nineteen patients confirmed arising from summit-CV were included in this study. The 19 patients were divided into proximal and distal portion groups based on their target sites in summit-CV. In the proximal portion group, 100% (11/11) VAs showed dominant negative (rs or QS) waves in lead I, while in the distal portion group, 87.5% (7/8) showed dominant positive waves (R, Rs or r) (p
