What Next After Failed Septal Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation?

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2012
Ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) by conventional radiofrequency ablation can be impossible if the ventricular wall at the targeted ablation site is very thick, as for example the ventricular septum.

Surgical repair of an esophageal perforation after radiofrequency catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation

open access: yesIndian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2019
Recent reports have described the incidence of atrioesophageal fistulas (AEF), often resulting in death, from radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF).1 Cases of esophageal perforation without concomitant AEF have not been ...

Case Report: Application of Thoracoscopic Clamp Radiofrequency Ablation on Atrial Tachycardia Originating From Right Atrial Appendage After Catheter Ablation Failure

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Atrial tachycardia originating from the right atrial appendage has a higher probability of failure of catheter ablation. Here we report a case of a 13-year-old boy with incessant tachycardia, complicated by heart enlargement, and heart failure ...

Radiofrequency ablation of ventricular premature contraction originating from a native coronary cusp after transcatheter aortic valve replacement

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2017
We describe a case of radiofrequency ablation of ventricular premature contraction (VPC) originating from the left ventricular outflow tract after transcatheter aortic valve replacement. The VPC origin was the native aortic valve annulus between the left

The Impact of a Visualized Steerable Sheath on Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation for First-Time Atrial Fibrillation Ablation: A Prospective, Randomized, Single-Blind Study. [PDF]

open access: yesCatheter Cardiovasc Interv
ABSTRACT Background A 3D electroanatomical mapping (3D‐EAM) visualized steerable sheath was designed to improve catheter placement and reduce radiation exposure during ablation, an established treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF). However, prospective randomized data comparing the procedural and clinical outcomes of visualized and non‐visualized ...

Left Atrium and Left Atrial Appendage Remodeling Assessed by Echocardiography Predict Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence After Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Cardiol
LAAS and LAASR were independent factors contributing to AF recurrence. Incremental value of LAAS and LAASR in risk prediction of AF recurrence. ABSTRACT Purpose The aim of this study is to evaluate left atrium (LA) and left atrial appendage (LAA) remodeling using two‐dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D‐STE) and investigate its predictive ...
