ABSTRACT
The left ventricular summit corresponds to the epicardial side of the basal superior free wall, extending from the base of the left coronary aortic sinus. The summit composes the floor of the compartment surrounded by the aortic root, infundibulum, pulmonary root, and left atrial appendage. The compartment is filled with thick adipose tissue, carrying the coronary vessels. Thus, the treatment of ventricular tachycardia originating from the summit is challenging, and three-dimensional understanding of this complicated region is fundamental. We revisit the clinical anatomy of the left ventricular summit with original images from the Wallace A. McAlpine collection.
