INTRODUCTION: Most idiopathic nonreentrant ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular premature contractions (VPCs) arise from the right or left ventricular outflow tract (OT). However, some right ventricular (RV) VT/VPCs originate near the His-bundle region. The aim of this study was to investigate ECG characteristics of VT/VPCs originating near the His-bundle in comparison with right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT)-VT/VPCs.
METHODS AND RESULTS: Ninety RV-VT/VPC patients underwent catheter mapping and radiofrequency ablation. ECG variables were compared between VT/VPCs originating from the RVOT and near the His-bundle. Ten patients had foci near the His-bundle (HIS group), with the His-bundle local ventricular electrogram preceding the QRS onset by 15-35 msec (mean: 22 msec) and His-bundle pacing produced a nearly identical ECG to clinical VT/VPCs. The HIS group R wave amplitude in the inferior leads (lead III: 1.0 +/- 0.6 mV) was significantly lower than that of the RVOT group (1.7 +/- 0.4 mV, P < 0.05). An R wave in aVL was present in 6 of 10 HIS group patients, while almost all RVOT group patients had a QS pattern in aVL. Lead I in HIS group exhibited significantly taller R wave amplitudes than RVOT group. HIS group QRS duration in the inferior leads was shorter than that of the RVOT group. Eight of 10 HIS group patients exhibited a QS pattern in lead V1 compared to 14 of 81 RVOT group patients. HIS group had larger R wave amplitudes in leads V5 and V6 than RVOT group.
CONCLUSION: VT/VPCs originating near the His-bundle have distinctive ECG characteristics. Knowledge of the characteristic QRS morphology may facilitate catheter mapping and successful ablation.
