A 38-year-old woman with a structurally normal heart was referred for catheter ablation due to symptomatic, monomorphic, high burden (12%) premature ventricular complexes (PVC) refractory to medical therapy. The PVC's ECG morphology suggested an origin in the proximal left anterior fascicle (LAF). During procedure PVCs were mechanically suppressed. Consequently, selection of the ablation target site was based on pace-mapping. This case illustrates how ablation from the right coronary cusp (RCC) for PVC arising from the proximal LAF could be accurately guided by pace-mapping. At this location, pacing can result in both a selective and a non-selective capture of the proximal LAF.
