Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Endocardial and epicardial electroanatomical mapping and ablation is a safe and effective therapy in the treatment of right ventricle arrhythmias occurring in the setting of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVD). Careful mapping and ablation plans must be tailored for each patient based on comorbidities and ventricular tachycardia morphologies. This review focuses on the catheter ablation for ventricular arrhythmias in patients with ARVD.

Role of Catheter Ablation in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia1
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy is a disorder characterized by frequent ventricular tachycardia originating from the right ventricle and fibro-fatty replacement of right ventricular myocardium. Though the disorder was originally described during surgical ablation of refractory ventricular tachycardia, catheter ablation of tachycardia is one of the options for patients ...
متن کاملRight ventricular thrombus formation in a patient with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia following radiofrequency ablation
A middle-aged female suffering from ARVD presented for routine follow-up 8 weeks after right ventricular radiofrequency ablation of recurring ventricular tachycardia. Echocardiography revealed two right ventricular thrombi in the scar area of right ventricular radiofrequency ablation. Ablation-related thromboembolic events should be considered as possible complication in patients suffering from...

AIMS The role of a novel non-contact mapping system (ESI 3000, Endocardial Solutions) to guide radiofrequency catheter ablation of untolerated ventricular tachycardia was investigated in 17 patients; 11 with prior myocardial infarction, three with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, and three with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. METHODS Twenty-seven monomorphic ventricular tachycar...

Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) is an inheritable heart muscle disease that predominantly affects the right ventricle (RV) and predisposes to ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD)1. The natural history is predominantly related to ventricular electric instability which may lead to arrhythmic SCD, mostly in young people and athletes2,3, but may progress with sig...
متن کاملHigh prevalence of catecholamine-facilitated focal ventricular tachycardia in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND Exercise-related ventricular tachycardia (VT) and high burden of premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) are common in arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy. We hypothesized that VT in arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy shows a high degree of association with the PVC at baseline. METHODS AND RESULTS The study population included 16 conse...
