Abstract

Bundle branch reentrant (BBR) ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a macroreentrant VT with a well-defined reentry circuit, incorporating the right and left bundle branches as obliga­tory limbs of the circuit, connected proximally by the His bundle and distally by the ventricular septal myocardium. The QRS during BBR VT can display either left bun­dle branch block or right bundle branch block when anterograde ventricular activation occurs over the right or left bundle, respectively. The vast majority of BBR VTs exhibit left bun­dle branch block configuration (“counterclockwise” BBR). Interfascicular reentry incorporates the left anterior and posterior fascicles as obliga­tory limbs of the circuit, connected proximally by the main trunk of the left bundle and distally by the ventricular myocardium. VT secondary to interfascicular reentry is extremely rare.
