Key Clinical Message Majority of ventricular tachycardias ( VT s) are caused by scar‐related macroreentry in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis. These VT s usually exhibit the reentry circuit on electroanatomic maps. We here describe a rare case of VT that exhibits a focal activation pattern on the electroanatomic map despite reentrant VT .
