Abstract

Intramural septal substrate presents a challenge in patients undergoing ventricular tachycardia ablation, in terms of both accurate mapping and ablation with unipolar radiofrequency energy. We present the first use of the novel 2-F octapolar catheter in accurately defining intramural septal scar and facilitating bipolar ablation. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).
