Aortic Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm Isolation by Radiofrequency Ablation in Outflow Tract Ventricular Tachycardia
Idiopathic monomorphic ventricular tachycardia and premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) commonly arise from the right and left ventricular outflow tracts (VOT). Their mechanism is most commonly triggered activity from delayed after-depolarizations and successful ablation is performed at the site of earliest endocardial activation. Re-entrant mechanisms have been rarely described. We report a ...
متن کاملAblation of left ventricular epicardial outflow tract tachycardia from the distal great cardiac vein.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility and safety of ablation of idiopathic outflow tract ventricular tachycardia (OTVT) from the distal ramifications of the coronary sinus (CS). BACKGROUND A significant minority of patients presenting with idiopathic OTVT have an epicardial focus, the standard approach to which involves ablation from within one of the aortic valv...
متن کاملRadiofrequency Catheter Ablation with the Use of a Noncontact Mapping System for Ventricular Tachycardia Originating from the Aortic Sinus Cusp —A Case Report—
Here we present a 15-year old female in whom an idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (VT) originating from the left aortic sinus cusp was eliminated by radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) under navigation using a noncontact mapping system (NCM). The dynamic activation map constructed with the NCM clearly identified a VT focus in the left aortic sinus cusp, from which the activation spread out...
متن کاملIatrogenic pleuropericardial communication: A rare complication of percutaneous epicardial mapping
Ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a wellestablished treatment for patients with recurrent implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shocks. Epicardial access is increasingly performed when epicardial arrhythmogenic substrate is suspected and may be considered as a first-line approach in the subset of myocardial diseases with preferential epicardial substrate, namely, idiopathic dilated c...
متن کاملRadiofrequency catheter ablation for idiopathic right ventricular tachycardia with special reference to morphological variation and long-term outcome.
OBJECTIVE To assess the long term outcome of radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation for idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (VT) originating from the outflow tract of the right ventricle, with special reference to the morphological variation in the VT-QRS complexes. PATIENTS 13 patients whose ventricular tachycardia was treated with RF ablation were followed up more than 18 months after RF abla...
