Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of a Patient With Idiopathic Left Ventricular Tachycardia

Abstract

Management of patients with ventricular tachycardia (VT) is often difficult. Sustained monomorphic VT is most often associated with structural heart disease such as healed myocardial infarction and cardiomyopathy. However no apparent structural abnormality is identified in some patients with VT. Medical treatment is often ineffective. Idiopathic ventricular tachycardia is defined as VT arising in a patient with no evidence of structural heart disease by using electrocardiography, echocardiography and coronary angiography. Because of its usual hemodynamic stability, its focal origin and the lack of surrounding scar idiopathic VT has been highly amenable to radiofrequency catheter ablation. In selected patients radiofrequency catheter ablation can terminate the episodes, provides clinical improvement and protect patient from the side effects of anti-arythmic agents. Here we present the absolute treatment of a patient with idiopathic VT by radiofrequency catheter ablation.
