We report the case of ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation procedure in a patient with history of surgically repaired double-outlet left ventricle. The electrophysiology procedure revealed a re-entry pattern between the right-ventricle to main-pulmonary-artery conduit and the tricuspid annulus. The re-entrant mechanism was most likely promoted by a fibrous remodeling of this area, related to the surgical repair. This case is the first to describe a re-entry mechanism between fixed anatomical barriers in a repaired right ventricle of a double-outlet left ventricle. A pace mapping technique was used to highlight the VT isthmus.
Keywords: catheter ablation; double-outlet left ventricle; pace-mapping; slow conduction; ventricular tachycardia.
