Abstract
A 68-year-old female patient with borderline QT prolongation developed polymorphic ventricular tachycardia soon after intracoronary injectio n of ioxaglate, There was no coronary stenosis or vasospasm, To invest igate abnormality of the ventricular repolarization, we recorded the m onophasic action potential (MAP) during coronary angiography, Ioxaglat e prolonged the MAP duration regionally in the perfused area and produ ced temporal dispersion of ventricular repolarization.
