title: Successful radiofrequency ablation of ventricular premature contractions within the coronary sinus.
abstract: This case report describes frequent ventricular premature contractions (VPCs) originating from an epicardial site of the basal posteroseptal ventricle. Detailed pace-mapping using a high output pacing stimulator was utilized to successfully ablate VPCs within the coronary sinus.
