Percutenous Catheter Ablation of the Accessory Pathway in a Patient with Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome Associated with Familial Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
Percutenous catheter ablation of the accessory pathway in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome is a highly successful mode of therapy. Sudden cardiac arrest survivors associated with WPW syndrome should undergo radiofrequency catheter ablation.

Role of Catheter Ablation in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia [PDF]
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy is a disorder characterized by frequent ventricular tachycardia originating from the right ventricle and fibro-fatty replacement of right ventricular myocardium. Though the disorder was originally

Intra-cardiac echocardiography guided catheter ablation of a right posterior accessory pathway in a patient with Ebstein׳s anomaly [PDF]
We report a case of Ebstein׳s anomaly in which radiofrequency catheter ablation of an accessory pathway was successfully performed under intra-cardiac echocardiography. A 50-year-old woman was referred to our hospital for radiofrequency catheter ablation

3D/2D Registration of Mapping Catheter Images for Arrhythmia Interventional Assistance [PDF]
Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation has transformed treatment for tachyarrhythmias and has become first-line therapy for some tachycardias. The precise localization of the arrhythmogenic site and the positioning of the RF catheter over that site are problematic: they can impair the efficiency of the procedure and are time consuming (several hours ...

Treatment of Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia with Radiofrequency Ablation and Temporary Mechanical Circulatory Support [PDF]
Catheter-based radiofrequency ablation has long been recognized as an effective treatment for refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT). A 57-year-old male with severe coronary artery disease underwent percutaneous mechanical circulatory support because of

Catheter Ablation of Idiopathic Ventricular Arrhythmias Originating from the Para-Hisian area - QRS Morphology Change and Late Effect of the Ablation: Case Series [PDF]
Introduction: Radiofrequency catheter ablation of idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias originating in the para-Hisian region could be challenging because of a potential risk of iatrogenic atrioventricular block.

Mitral valve perforation after left lateral accessory pathway ablation: a case report
Background Radiofrequency catheter ablation is considered to be a relatively safe procedure. This is an unusual case report in which severe mitral regurgitation was occurred after left lateral accessory pathway radiofrequency catheter ablation.
