  • Description: The activation mapping revealed that the earliest site of PVC (arrow in Figure 1A) was in the PA and about 10 mm above the pulmonary valve (dot lines), where a sharp potential preceded QRS onset of PVCs by 45 ms. The PVC excitation traveled 10 mm toward the anterior septum (Figure 1C) and then 10 mm downward (Figure 1D), propagating to the RVOT just below the pulmonary valve (Figure 1E). In this case, the high-density (HD Grid) mapping revealed the propagation of PVCs arising from the PA trunk propagated via the preferential conduction pathway and exiting from the RVOT septum beneath the pulmonary valve into ventricles. The high-density mapping can identify the origin and preferential pathway for VAs arising the PA and is useful for ablation for these VAs. Since HD Grid catheter can record potentials in two directions, it is possible to obtain information on the characteristics of minute potentials and the direction of conduction, which is useful for elucidating the mechanism of complex arrhythmias.
