Figure 1.
Two different PVC morphologies seen in the superficial ECG recording of the patient during the PVC ablation procedure performed 1 year ago. It is observed that PVC2 and the patient’s VT morphology show a strong similarity. Atrioventricular (AV) dissociation is seen, supporting that the tachyarrhythmia is VT. *atrial depolarization waves; PVC, premature ventricular complex; VT, ventricular tachycardia.

The areas were given radiofrequency (RF) ablation.

A septal aneurysm area with patchy scars is seen on voltage mapping. Areas with high correlation to VT morphology by pace-mapping technique are marked with blue dots.
