Ablation of ventricular tachycardia
Herzschrittmachertherapie & Elektrophysiologie, 2007Ablation is an important management tool for the treatment of ventricular arrhythmias. Even at experienced centers ventricular tachycardia ablation carries a minor but significant risk for potential complications, including vascular and thromboembolic complications, air embolism, volume overload and the precipitation of congestive heart failure ...

Noninvasive Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia
New England Journal of Medicine, 2017Scar-related ventricular tachycardia (VT) is an important cause of sudden death and morbidity in patients with heart disease.

Laser Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia
The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1988About 5-10% of patients after myocardial infarction experience sustained ventricular tachycardias. Drug therapy is successful only in 60% of these patients, so that a number of them is on a high risk of a sudden cardiac death. Indirect surgical approaches like myocardial revascularization, or aneurysm resection have proven to be ineffective in the ...

Surgical Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia
Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2022Surgery for ventricular tachycardia (VT) is indicated in patients in whom pharmacotherapy or catheter ablation is ineffective or frequent VT attacks are not suppressed or with frequent activation of implantable cardioverter defibrillator. In ischemic VT, resection of fibrous endocardium combined with encircling cryothermia at the border between the ...

Catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia
Internal Medicine Journal, 2010AbstractSudden cardiac death due to ventricular arrhythmias remains the most common cause of death in developed nations. Implantable cardioverter defibrillators have been shown to improve mortality in highârisk groups for ventricular tachyarrhythmias, but they are not curative, with the risk of arrhythmia recurrence remaining unaltered.

Ablation of ventricular fibrillation and tachycardia
Current Cardiology Reports, 2005Catheter ablation therapy for ventricular tachycardia has evolved over the past 20 years to become the first-line therapy. This development has been facilitated by technology that has allowed better anatomic and electrophysiologic correlations. A better understanding of radiofrequency (RF) ablation has led to safer and more effective treatments ...

Catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1995Endocardial lesions created by radiofrequency catheter ablation are relatively small and focal. The application of radiofrequency ablation to patients with structural heart disease and ventricular tachycardia is quite limited because the substrate for these tachycardias is often diffuse or difficult to localize.

Catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia
Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2003Most patients with ventricular tachycardia (VT) associated with structural heart disease should receive an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator as initial therapy. Patients with symptomatic recurrences of tachycardia, including those with multiple defibrillator shocks, are considered for ablation.

Catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia
American Heart Journal, 1994The role and success rate of catheter ablation for monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT) depend on the mechanism and origin of the tachycardia (i.e., myocardial versus His-Purkinje system) and whether it occurs in the presence or absence of structural heart diseases.

Ablation of Idiopathic Ventricular Tachycardia
Current Cardiology Reports, 2010Idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias occur in patients without structural heart disease. They can arise from a variety of specific areas within both ventricles and in the supravalvular regions of the great arteries. Two main groups need to be differentiated: arrhythmias from the outflow tract (OT) region and idiopathic left ventricular, so-called ...
