Figure 3 – Outline showing the initial ventricular activation in cases of LSFB. Left His system with its three divisions, in a left sagittal projection. The LAF ends at the base of the ALPM of the mitral valve. The LPF ends in the base of the PMPM of the mitral valve. Since the activation vectors dependent on the anterosuperior (A) and posteroinferior (B) fascicles go in opposite directions, they cancel each other, with minimal predominance of LPF. This phenomenon explains the frequent initial q wave in the right precordial leads in the presence of LPFB. Note the absence of the first 1AM vector, dependent on LSF. LBB: left bundle branch; RBB: right bundle branch; LAF: left anterior fascicle; LPF: left posterior fascicle; LSF: left septal fascicle; LSFB: left septal fascicular block.
