Successful slow pathway ablation in a patient with persistent left superior vena cava.
Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is a rare vascular variant which can add difficulties to slow pathway (SP) ablation procedures because of the disturbed anatomy of the triangle of Koch. We describe a case of a successful SP ablation using an anatomical approach in a patient with PLSVC.
