Videoscopic left cardiac sympathetic denervation for patients with recurrent ventricular fibrillation/malignant ventricular arrhythmia syndromes besides congenital long-QT syndrome.
BACKGROUND Treatment options for patients with recurrent ventricular arrhythmias refractory to pharmacotherapy and ablation are minimal. Although left cardiac sympathetic denervation (LCSD) is well established in long-QT syndrome, its role in non-long-QT syndrome arrhythmogenic channelopathies and cardiomyopathies is less clear. Here, we report our single-center experience in performing LCSD in...
متن کاملLeft cardiac sympathetic denervation in the therapy of congenital long QT syndrome. A worldwide report.
BACKGROUND Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a congenital disorder accompanied by a high incidence of sudden cardiac death. beta-Adrenergic blockade is the therapy of choice, and it is successful in 75-80% of patients. For those in whom cardiac events (syncope or cardiac arrest) are not prevented by beta-blockade, experimental studies suggest that left cardiac sympathetic denervation (LCSD) may be use...
متن کاملPhysical and Psychological Consequences of Left Cardiac Sympathetic Denervation in Long-QT Syndrome and Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia.
BACKGROUND Left cardiac sympathetic denervation reduces risk in long-QT syndrome (LQTS) and catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. Side effects and patient satisfaction have not been systematically analyzed in patients who underwent left cardiac sympathetic denervation. Aims of this study included documenting physical and psychological consequences and patient satisfaction after...
متن کاملLeft cardiac sympathetic denervation for catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia.
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is a potentially lethal disease characterized by adrenergically mediated ventricular arrhythmias manifested especially in children and teenagers. Beta-blockers are the cornerstone of therapy, but some patients do not have a complete response to this therapy and receive an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). Given the nature of cate...
متن کاملDynamics of ventricular repolarisation in the congenital long QT syndromes.
Patients with congenital QT interval prolongation are at risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death. It has been suggested that the susceptibility to arrhythmias in these syndromes may be related to the abnormal dynamics of ventricular repolarisation. The dynamics of ventricular repolarisation, including assessment of the effect of changing heart rate on the QT interval and the duration o...
