Acute right ventricular failure complicating catheter ablation for right ventricular tachycardia
Introduction Catheter ablation is an important treatmentmodality formanagement of ventricular arrhythmias in the setting of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) shocks and ventricular tachycardia (VT) storm. The frequency of patients with nonischemic cardiomyopathy requiring ablation for ventricular arrhythmias is increasing.Arrhythmias of right ventricular (RV) origin are less common t...
متن کاملCatheter ablation of idiopathic right ventricular tachycardia.
C atheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia has become an alternative to pharmacological, electrical, or surgical therapy of severe ventricular tachyarrhythmias. It may be successful in about two thirds of patients with ventricular tachycardia of various origins.1-7 Though catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia is still an evolving, and thus experimental, technique, it has proven indisp...
متن کاملLow energy catheter ablation of right ventricular outflow tract tachycardia.
A 38 year old woman with a structurally normal heart presented with near syncope and had right ventricular outflow tract tachycardia. She was intolerant of antiarrhythmic medication and underwent low energy catheter ablation. Six non-arcing shocks of 25 J were delivered to the right ventricular outflow tract. No further ventricular tachycardia occurred during a follow up of seven months without...
متن کاملCandida right ventricular mural endocarditis complicating indwelling right atrial catheter.
Catheter-associated candidemia is a common problem in immunocompromised patients. A leukemic patient had Candida right ventricular mural endocarditis complicating an indwelling right atrial catheter. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of Candida right ventricular mural vegetation visualized by two-dimensional echocardiography.
