4 Figure 3 A: Printout of the implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) during syncope. Ventricular fibrillation is detected and successfully treated with a shock. B: Incidence of VF/VT episodes detected and treated by the ICD under medical treatment and after ablation. AEGM = atrial electrocardiogram; MAR = marker channel; NSVT = nonsustained ventricular tachycardia; VEGM = right ventricular tip-to-ring electrocardiogram; VF = ventricular fibrillation; VT = ventricular tachycardia.

5 Figure 4 Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (PMVT) preceded by a short coupled premature ventricular beat with a narrow QRS complex, qR pattern in lead V1, and left superior axis. Morphology is nearly identical in the initiating beat recorded on Holter monitoring (A) and during electrophysiologic study (EPS) (B).

6 Figure 5 Left anterior oblique (LAO) projection of catheter positions during mapping of Purkinje potentials. The mapping catheter and decapolar catheter are positioned using a retroaortic approach on the left septum. The dual-chamber implanted defibrillator and leads are visible. CS = coronary sinus; HBE = His-bundle electrode; LV = left ventricle; RA = right atrium; RV = right ventricle.

7 Figure 6 Intracardiac electrocardiograms. A: Arrow highlights the proximal-to-distal activation of presystolic Purkinje potentials along the septum in sinus rhythm. B: Episode of polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. Black arrows indicate presystolic Purkinje potentials. White arrows indicate diastolic Purkinje potentials. S9,10 were located at the proximal left ventricular septum. MAP indicates signals from the ablation catheter, which was positioned parallel to the decapolar catheter.
