Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Premature Contractions Originating From RVOT With Interruption of the Inferior Vena Cava—A Case Report

Abstract

ABSTRACT Ventricular premature contractions (VPC) originating from right ventricular outflow tract is the most common type of ventricular arrhythmias in clinic settings, which can be effectively cured by catheter ablation. Interruption of the inferior vena cava (IVC) is a rare vascular anomaly resulting from aberrant development during embryogenesis. Herein, we reported a very rare case of VPC originating from right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) with interruption of IVC, which was successfully ablated by transfemoral vein approach.
