A 36-years-old woman with a congenital corrected transposition of the great arteries, who underwent Senning and Rastelli operations, was admitted with a symptomatic supraventricular tachycardia. During an electrophysiological study, uncommon atrioventricular (AV) nodal reentrant tachycardia was induced. The coronary veins and coronary sinus did not connect to the systemic venous atrium. The His bundle electrogram (HBE) was recorded at the anterior septum of the mitral valve via the aorta. The target of ablation was the site of the earliest atrial activation during the tachycardia, 5 mm posterior to the AV node, and a successful cryoablation was performed using a transaortic approach. Both the antegrade and retrograde conduction of the slow AV nodal pathway was eliminated.
