Background-Interaction between wave fronts in the right and left atrium may be important for maintenance of atrial fibrillation, but little is known about electrophysiological properties and preferential routes of transseptal conduction.Methods and Results-Eighteen patients (age 44+/-12 years) without structural heart disease underwent right atrial electroanatomic mapping during pacing from the distal coronary sinus (CS) or the posterior left atrium. During distal CS pacing, 9 patients demonstrated a single transseptal breakthrough near the CS os, 1 patient in the high right atrium near the presumed insertion of Bachmann's bundle and 1 patient near the fossa ovalis. The mean activation time from stimulus to CS os was 48+/-15 ms compared with 86+/-15 ms to Bachmann's bundle insertion (P
