Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation in Structural Heart Disease With LVEF > 35%: Clinical Outcomes and Recurrence Patterns

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 9, Page 2031-2038, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background In patients with structural heart disease (SHD) and moderately impaired left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF > 35%), data on outcomes after ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation remain limited. This analysis focuses on VT recurrence after ablation in patients presenting with sustained VT and LVEF > 35% within a secondary ...

Haemodynamically stable patients with penetrating cardiac injury: The Auckland City Hospital experience

Hong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 33, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Background The management of penetrating cardiac injuries (PCI) has evolved significantly. Haemodynamically stable patients with benign PCIs may be managed conservatively or with subxiphoid pericardial window (SPW). Whereas this approach has been adopted in high‐volume trauma centres, its applicability in low‐volume settings remains unclear ...

Hybrid Thoracoscopic‐Endocardial Versus Endocardial Catheter Ablation for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
Hybrid thoracoscopic‐endocardial ablation improved overall rhythm control, antiarrhythmic drug independence, and reduced repeat ablation compared with endocardial catheter ablation in persistent atrial fibrillation. These benefits were offset by greater procedural complexity and a higher risk of major complications. ABSTRACT Background Hybrid ablation (
