I'm revising a scientific article on "Efficacy and safety Safety of Three Catheters in a Stepwise Approach Toto Typical Atrial Flutter"
I have difficulty with the part "pacing septally and laterally". This is the full sentence:
In patients with sinus rhythm, isthmus conduction was verified by pacing septally and laterally of the isthmus before ablation.
What do you think should be used instead of this phrase?
Thanks!

by septal and lateral pacing of the isthmus
Septal here means related to the septum, (or plural septa), which is the thin muscle wall dividing the right and left sides of the heart.

Septal cannot be used as an adverb, only as an adjective.
Below are some examples:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasal_septum_deviation
I would rephrase the phrase as above.

Comment: "I reached the conclusion that "pacing septally and laterally" is the result of bad translation. I think you understood this fact and provided the best solution. Thanks!"

septally is correct in context
I think the question here is whether the person skilled in the art of cardiology and sub specialties including electrophysiology would understand “septally” to be correct in this context. I think the answer to this is YES.
The second question would then be, whether the same form would be used in the target language. If you are doing an English edit, leave it as is.
There are about 100 medical articles to be found on Google containing this phrase “septally and laterally”, see some examples below:
Clinical Arrhythmology and Electrophysiology: A Companion to Braunwald's Heart Disease – pages 254 & 277
Cardiac Electrophysiology: from Cell to Bedside - Page 773
Characterization of Left Atrial Activation in the Intact Human Heart - http://circ.ahajournals.org/content/107/5/733.full.pdf
Severe Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction Increases Atrial Fibrillation After Ablation of Atrial Flutter –http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/515453_2
