title: The relation between His bundle and the first septal perforating artery: implications for percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation.
abstract: The present study shows that in about 12.4% of subjects the first septal artery (FSA) is very near from the His bundle. Routine measurement of His-FSA distance during percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation (PTSMA) procedure might be helpful to stratify which patient would be at higher risk of developing complete AV block.
