Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia Originating from the Left Posterior Papillary Muscle Guided by the Shadow of a Multipolar Catheter

A 62-year-old man without structural heart disease underwent electrophysiological testing for ventricular tachycardia (VT). Hemodynamically unstable VT was induced after isoproterenol (ISP) provocation. Electroanatomical mapping using a multipolar catheter identified the earliest activation originat...

description A 62-year-old man without structural heart disease underwent electrophysiological testing for ventricular tachycardia (VT). Hemodynamically unstable VT was induced after isoproterenol (ISP) provocation. Electroanatomical mapping using a multipolar catheter identified the earliest activation originating from the posterior papillary muscle (PPM) where prepotentials preceding the local ventricular electrogram were observed. Irrigated radiofrequency current guided by the shadow of a multipolar catheter eliminated the VT. This case suggested that multipolar catheters may be helpful for identifying tachycardia origins arising from the PPM.
