Ventricular tachycardia in patients without structural heart disease.
The existence of ventricular tachycardia in subjects without detectable heart disease has been recognized for more than half a century. These rhythms occur in younger individuals and account for about 5% of referrals to the electrophysiology service. In contrast, ventricular tachycardia in the setting of chronic ischemic heart disease occurs in an older age group and accounts for more than 90% ...
متن کاملUnusual Tachycardia Association In A patient Without Structural Heart Disease
We report an unusual association of persistent atrial flutter and bundle branch re-entrant ventricular tachycardia in a young patient without structural heart disease. Atrial flutter masked the infra-Hisian conduction disease, was fundamentally dependent on a long PR interval, and could be a possible trigger of ventricular tachycardia.
متن کاملEctopic atrial tachycardia in children.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Ectopic atrial tachycardia (EAT) is an unusual and potentially risky arrhythmia that can result in left ventricular dysfunction if not properly managed. In adults, EAT is mainly caused by diseased atrial myocardium and responds poorly to antiarrhythmic drugs. The characteristics of EAT in children might be different from those in adults because of their immature myocardiu...
متن کاملLong-term outcome of verapamil-sensitive sustained left ventricular tachycardia in patients without structural heart disease.
OBJECTIVES This study attempted to determine the long-term outcome of verapamil-sensitive sustained left ventricular tachycardia in patients without apparent structural heart disease. BACKGROUND Several types of idiopathic ventricular tachycardia have been reported, and their clinical, electrophysiologic and electropharmacologic characteristics are different. It is possible that the prognosis...
متن کاملRadiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia in Patients Without Structural Heart Disease
Background. Radiofrequency energy has been used safely and successfully to eliminate accessory pathways in patients with the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and the substrate for atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia. However, this form of ablation has had only limited success in eliminating ventricular tachycardia in patients with structural heart disease. In contrast, direct-current cat...
