Ventricular tachycardia in a young population without overt heart disease.
Since 1974, 24 young patients presenting with ventricular tachycardia and without clinical evidence of heart disease were evaluated and followed. Sixteen patients (67%) were symptomatic. Clinical episodes of ventricular tachycardia were sustained in 18, incessant in four, and nonsustained in two patients. The rate of tachycardia ranged from 130 to 300 beats/min (mean = 200 beats/min). Subtle ab...

متن کاملVentricular 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 کاملVentricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation in a young population.
In this study, we describe the findings in 18 young patients (age range 4 days to 24 years, mean 16.6 years) who had ventricular tachycardia and/or ventricular fibrillation and were followed for 4--70 months (mean 22.4 months). Patients had a variety of problems associated with their arrhythmia, including mitral valve prolapse, cardiomyopathy, myocarditis, prolonged QT syndrome and hypokalemia....
متن کاملNonischemic ventricular tachycardia. Clinical course and long-term follow-up in patients without clinically overt heart disease.
This report describes the clinical, laboratory, and electrophysiologic features of 52 patients with ventricular tachycardia (VT) who had no clinical evidence of heart disease. The mean age of patients was 36 years, cardiovascular collapse occurred in 18 patients (35%), and exercise-related symptoms were present in 24 of 49 patients (49%). There were 20 patients with sustained monomorphic VT, 11...
