Population

A 74-year-old man with idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (VT) with a QRS morphology with a left bundle branch block and right inferior axis

Intervention

Electrophysiologic testing and ablation at the right coronary cusp (RCC)

Outcome

Successful ablation and pace map findings

This case report suggests the existence of a myocardial fibre travelling from the right coronary cusp to the epicardium of the right ventricular outflow tract in a patient with idiopathic VT.

Discussion

No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.

Implication

May inform RCC mapping in refractory RVOT VT; hypothesis-generating for cusp-epicardial myocardial connections.
