We report a 25-year-old female patient with a long history of symptomatic paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. Electroanatomic activation mapping demonstrated a focal tachycardia originating in the right upper pulmonary vein, 3 cm distal to the ostium. Due to the recent experiences in the management of focal atrial fibrillation with catheter ablation, direct ablation applied inside the pulmonary vein was avoided. Instead, an electrical disconnection of the pulmonary musculature from the left atrium guided by a circumferential 10-electrode mapping catheter was performed. The patient has since been asymptomatic during follow-up.
