Complex ventricular tachycardias involving the fascicular system (fascicular ventricular tachycardias [FVTs]) can be challenging. In this review, we describe our approach to the diagnosis and ablation of these arrhythmias with 10 illustrative cases that involve (1) differentiation from supraventricular tachycardia; (2) assessment for atypical bundle branch reentry and other interfascicular FVTs; (3) examination of P1/P2 activation sequences in sinus rhythm, pacing, and tachycardia; and (4) entrainment techniques to establish the tachycardia mechanism and aid circuit localization. To summarize, 5 cases had prior ablation with 2 previously misdiagnosed as supraventricular tachycardia.

The pacing maneuvers for supraventricular tachycardia with cycle length alternans are sometimes difficult, especially when diagnostic ventricular pacing does not conduct to the atrium. Even in such a situation, critical diagnostic findings can be obtained by spontaneous premature ventricular contraction.

The case was a 15-year-old male with a history of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia refractory to medical therapy and prior catheter. A repeat electrophysiology study and catheter ablation were applied. Baseline AH and HV intervals were 100 and 55 ms during normal sinus rhythm (NSR), respectively.

Coronary cameral fistulas (CCFs) are rare and are characterized by an abnormal connection between a coronary artery and any of the four chambers of the heart. Most cases of CCFs are asymptomatic. The most common presentation in symptomatic patients includes chest pain or heart failure; however, arrhythmias are rarely associated.
