Open window mapping for redo accessory pathway ablation in Ebstein anomaly
Abstract
Accessory pathway ablation in Ebstein anomaly can be significantly more challenging than in structurally normal hearts. An alternative to the conventional approach to mapping APs is to detect points with a high-density mapping catheter based on an automated detection algorithm using open window mapping. It detects the sharpest signal at each point with high-density mapping rather than relying on the origin of the local electrogram to localize the pathway and determine a site for successful ablation. We herein report the first case in literature of a redo-accessory pathway ablation in Ebstein anomaly using this technique.
