A 61-year-old female with 50 000 ventricular premature contractions and a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction of 35% was referred to our center. Although the origin was considered to originate from the junction between the left and right coronary cusp, a single radiofrequency application above the aortic sinus cusp could eliminate it. LGE-MRI was able to reveal the exact location of the single RF lesion.
