title: [Right ventricular outflow tract tachycardia 30 years after surgical correction of tetralogy of Fallot].
abstract: This case report describes a 31-year-old man with a sustained wide complex tachycardia with left bundle brunch block morphology after surgical repair of a tetralogy of Fallot. The tachycardia was inducible after orciprenaline administration after ventricular stimulation with one extra beat. In combination with the three-dimensional electroanatomic mapping system and pace mapping technique the origin of the tachycardia was identified at the lateral free wall of the right ventricular outflow tract tachycardia (RVOT) inferior of the pulmonary valve. Successful radiofrequency ablation was performed and the patient is still free from ventricular tachycardia.
