Predictors of Success in Ablation of Scar-Related Ventricular Tachycardia
During ablation of re-entrant ventricular tachycardia (VT) 3-dimensional mapping systems are now used to properly delineate the scar tissue and aid ablation of scar-related VT. The aim of our study was to outline how the mode of ablation predicts success

Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation Through a Recanalized Surgically Plicated Left Ventricular Apical Aneurysm [PDF]
Left ventricular apical aneurysms are associated with scar-related ventricular tachycardia (VT) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients. We present a patient with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who underwent combined epicardial and endocardial VT ...
