Although left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) has emerged as a physiological pacing strategy and is increasingly incorporated into cardiac resynchronization therapy, its role as a delivery site for iATP remains unclear.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case summary<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We report a 57-year-old man with advanced heart failure who underwent implantation of LBB\u2013optimized cardiac resynchronization therapy with defibrillator for secondary prevention. During follow-up, multiple episodes of sustained VT with different morphologies were consistently and successfully terminated by iATP delivered exclusively from the LBBAP lead, without the need for conventional ATP or shock therapies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case suggests that conduction system pacing via the LBB area may provide a novel and effective substrate for antitachycardia pacing, potentially enabling more rapid engagement of re-entrant circuits through the His\u2013Purkinje system. Further studies are warranted to establish the efficacy of iATP delivered from conduction system pacing leads.<\/jats:p>\n
