Abstract

Elimination of ventricular tachycardia with epicardial substrate may be limited due to close proximity of the phrenic nerve. In this case report we illustrate the use of a decapolar catheter in a Foley catheter for deviating the prenic nerve to safely perform epicardial ventricular tachycardia ablation.<br /> (Copyright ©2022 The Author(s).)
