Cases of familial idiopathic left ventricular tachycardia.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The cases of two Asian brothers with idiopathic left ventricular tachycardia are reported. Their 12-electrocardial leads showed regular, wide QRS tachycardia showing left bundle branch block morphology with a superior axis deviation. Radiofrequency ablation was performed and there was no specific events during 10 year follow up.

Gender differences in idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias.
ustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) is most often related to myocardial structural heart disease, including a healed myocardial infarction, and cardiomyopathies. However, no apparent structural abnormalities are identified in approximately 10% of all cases of sustained monomorphic VT in the United States1 and in 20% of those in Japan.2 These cases of VT are referred to as “idiopat...
متن کاملIdiopathic Fascicular Ventricular Tachycardia
Idiopathic fascicular ventricular tachycardia is an important cardiac arrhythmia with specific electrocardiographic features and therapeutic options. It is characterized by relatively narrow QRS complex and right bundle branch block pattern. The QRS axis depends on which fascicle is involved in the re-entry. Left axis deviation is noted with left posterior fascicular tachycardia and right axis ...
متن کاملIdiopathic Submitral Left Ventricular Aneurysm: an unusual substrate for ventricular tachycardia in Caucasians
Annular submitral aneurysms have been rarely reported in Caucasians. They are typically diagnosed in non-white adults who present with severe mitral regurgitation, heart failure, systemic embolism, ventricular arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death. In this article, we describe the case of a white woman, presenting with ventricular tachycardia, who had a large submitral left ventricular aneurysm...
متن کاملRepetitive monomorphic ventricular tachycardia originating from the inferior tricuspid annulus.
We report a case of an otherwise healthy 63-year-old male with incessant, highly symptomatic ventricular arrhythmia that displayed over 60,000 premature ventricular contractions and 499 runs of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) during 24 hours of ECG monitoring. The ventricular ectopy had a QRS morphology of the left bundle branch block (LBBB), however, with a superior axis. Structural...
متن کاملIdiopathic Ventricular Tachycardia of Left Ventricular Origin
Background. The signal-averaged ECG has been used to detect late potentials, and it is considered a noninvasive marker for areas of slow conduction requisite for reentrant arrhythmia. Late potentials are not usually found in patients with idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (VT); nevertheless, fragmented electrograms are often recorded in those patients during endocardial mapping. The purpose of...
