Cardiac Valve Diseases and Treatments

Radiofrequency catheter ablation of the atrioventricular janction is usually achieved from either the right or left atrioventricular junction. We describe a new approach in which the atrioventricular junction was successfully ablated from the supravalvular region of the noncoronary cusp of the aortic valve in an unusual patient in whom conventional approaches were unsuccessful.
