A single premature stimulation from the para-Hisian region unmasked negative involvement of the left anterior fascicle in the verapamil-sensitive ventricular tachycardia with a right bundle branch block and right-axis deviation.

A 33-year-old man had verapamil-sensitive ventricular tachycardia (VT) with a right bundle branch block (RBBB) and right axis deviation. Programmed stimulation from the para-Hisian region induced ventricular tachycardias (VT1 or VT2). VT1 was entrained during pacing from the para-Hisian region. A single para-Hisian stimulation antidromically captured the proximal portion of the left anterior fascicle (LAF), but the cycle length of VT2 remained unchanged. This observation indicated that the upper limb of the LAF was a bystander of the reentry circuit. We have clarified this mechanism with applying a single premature stimulation from the para-Hisian region.
