Septal accessory pathway (AP) ablation can be challenging due to the complex anatomy of the septal region. The decision to access the left atrium (LA) is often made after failure of ablation from the right. We sought to establish whether the difference between ventriculo‐atrial (VA) time during right ventricular (RV) apical pacing versus the VA during tachycardia would help establish the successful site for ablation of septal APs.
