Popis: | We present the first description of successful radiofrequency (RF) ablation of a bidirectional atrioventricular accessory pathway (AP) guided by nonfluoroscopic mapping with use of three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging integrated into the Nav-X system (MRI/Nav-X fusion) in a 13-year-old boy with remote surgical palliation for cyanotic criss-cross heart with atrioventricular discordance, double-outlet right ventricle, and a large ventricular septal defect. Due to complex anatomy, a unique finding was that the eliminated left lateral AP electrically connected the left atrium to the antero-superior morphologic right ventricle prior to ablation. |
