Figure 2 Electroanatomical activation mapping showing the sites of earliest activation during premature atrial contractions. The phrenic nerve capture area is also highlighted (blue circles), clearly overlapping the target ablation area.

Figure 3 A: Pericardiotomy extended inferiorly and superiorly with the Bovie cautery. B: Placement of a silk suture in the mid point of the incised pericardium, which was externalized through the chest wall. Gentle traction on the suture was able to retract the lateral pericardial wall. HeartRhythm Case Reports 2018 4, DOI: ( /j.hrcr ) Copyright © 2018 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions
