A left-sided accessory pathway revisited with remote retrograde magnetic navigation.
Accessory pathways can be ablated with a high success rate. Occasionally, recurrences appear after successful procedures, sometimes shortly after the end of the procedure. We describe a successful ablation using remote magnetic navigation of a single catheter using stored vectors after recurrence of accessory pathway conduction while the patient was still in the electrophysiology laboratory.
