Abstract：Ventricular arrhythmia originating from the coronary venous system(CVS) is not rare in clinical practice. However, the success rate of catheter ablation is low due to the complicated anatomical structure of CVS and its adjacent tissue. This paper reviews on the anatomical structure of CVS and its adjacent tissue, and the ECG features and catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmia, aiming to elevate the success rate of catheter ablation of ventricular arrhythmia originating from this site.
