Idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (VT) with the right bundle branch block pattern and left-axis deviation has been shown to be due to reentry, but the property of the slow conduction zone within the reentry circuit is little understood. In 7 patients (mean VT cycle length [CL]: 361 ± 49 ms), rapid pacing from the right ventricular outflow tract was performed during VT while recording electrograms at the early activation site in the left ventricle and at the right ventricular apex; also, conduction times from the pacing site to these recording sits (St-A and St-B intervals, respectively) were measured. Both constant fusion (except for the last paced beat) and progressive fusion were seen in all patients, indicating VT entrainment. The left ventricular site was captured orthodromically with an St-A interval of 394 ± 57 ms at the pacing CL of 351 ± 47 ms during entrainment, while the right ventricular apex was captured directly with an St-B interval of 63 ± 19 ms. The St-A interval was gradually prolonged with the shortening of the pacing CL, whereas the St-B interval remained unchanged. VT was interrupted in all patients at the pacing CL of 279 ± 39 ms. The effects of intravenous lidocaine (1 mg/kg) and verapamil (1 mg) were examined in 5 and 7 patients, respectively. Neither drug terminated VT but the VT-CL was increased to 369 ± 57 ms after lidocaine (p < 0.05) and to 413 ± 69 ms after verapamil (p < 0.05) (p < 0.05 vs after lidocaine). The St-A interval was significantly increased after lidocaine (p <0.05) and after verapamil (p <0.05), while the St-B interval remained unchanged. A significant correlation between changes in St-A interval and VT-CL after verapamil was noted (p < 0.001). In conclusion, the slow conduction zone of this VT shows tachycardia-dependent conduction delay, and the mechanism of this slow conduction involves mainly calcium channel-dependent conduction and partly depressed sodium channel-dependent conduction.
