AI Article Synopsis
- * Intracardiac echocardiography is a new imaging technique that lets doctors see the misplaced tricuspid valve and the altered heart anatomy more clearly.
- * The text details a case where a 3D electroanatomic map was created using this imaging technique to assist in an ablation procedure for a specific heart pathway issue in a patient.
Article Abstract
In patients with Ebstein's anomaly, the distorted anatomy with discordance between the true atrioventricular (AV) groove and the tricuspid valve poses many challenges to the electrophysiologist. Intracardiac echocardiography is a recent tool that allows visualization of the displaced tricuspid valve, the true AV groove, and the atrialized right ventricle. We present a 3-dimensional electroanatomic map built using intracardiac echocardiography and the CARTOSOUND module (Biosense Webster, Diamond Bar, CA, USA) in one such patient who underwent ablation of a right-sided mid-septal accessory pathway.
