Catheter ablation of accessory pathways can be challenging depending on the location of these pathways, and accessory pathways are rare through the aortic cusps. We report a patient who underwent radiofrequency catheter ablation for manifestation of a left anterior accessory pathway from the left coronary sinus of Valsalva near the aortic–mitral continuity. Anterior accessory pathways can be safely and effectively ablated from the aortic cusps with favorable long-term outcomes.
