Ablation of Premature Ventricular Complex in the Proximal Coronary
Sinus: ICE to Success
Abstract
We present a case of a 74-year-old male with symptomatic premature
ventricular complexes (PVC) localized to the proximal coronary sinus
(CS). Despite initial mapping identifying the basal inferoseptal left
ventricle, the closest electrogram was found within the CS, confirmed
during a spontaneous PVC. Ablation at this site resulted in immediate
PVC suppression, sustained at 3-month follow-up. This case underscores
the utility of advanced mapping techniques, including intracardiac
echocardiography and activation mapping, in identifying and successfully
ablating PVCs at unusual sites such as the proximal CS.
