Pacemaker generator reprogramming does not always present an adequate solution to the problem of pacemaker‐mediated tachycardia. A case is described where direct current shock catheter ablation of ventriculoatrial conduction prevented pacemaker‐mediated tachycardia and allowed optimal dual chamber pacemaker programming.
