49 patients with 51 left-sided accessory pathways underwent radiofrequency catheter ablation for symptomatic supraventricular tachycardia via the transeptal route using specialised long vascular sheaths with compound curves. The procedure was successful in 45 patients (92%). The mean fluroscopic time was 22.5 +/- 15.2 mins and the mean procedure time was 1.7 +/- 0.5 hours. Pericardial tamponade occurred in 2 patients (4%) and 2 patients (4%) required switching to the retrograde transaortic route for successful ablation of the pathways. During the period of follow-up of 16.8 +/- 6.9 months, clinical recurrence occurred in 2 patients (4%). In conclusion, the transeptal route of radiofrequency catheter ablation is a useful alternative strategy to the transaortic approach with good long term results. The use of specialised sheaths may help in stabilisation of the catheter during the procedure which can generate more adequate lesions and consequently a lower recurrence rate.
