Pace mapping used to locate the site for ablation of idiopathic right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) ventricular tachycardia remains difficult and time-consuming. A method to facilitate pace mapping and the most common site of ablation of this tachycardia are reported. In 18 consecutive patients with RVOT ventricular tachycardia, electrocardiographic criteria based on the QRS orientation in lead 1 and the R wave progression in the precordial leads were used to find pace maps matching the arrhythmia. Identical pace maps were obtained on the septum of the RVOT in 16 patients and resulted in successful ablations. These sites were concentrated in the anterior superior aspect of the RVOT determined by fluoroscopic imaging. In the remaining two cases identical pace maps could not be found in this area. The results of this study narrow the anatomic location for radiofrequency ablation of idiopathic RVOT ventricular tachycardia. This is the first description of an electrocardiography-guided approach to finding an identical pace map in the RVOT.
