Ablation of ventricular arrhythmias in arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia.
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) is a genetically determined myocardial disease characterized by fibrofatty replacement of the right ventricular wall. Ventricular tachyarrhythmias can be seen in the early stages of the disease, which is one of the most important causes of sudden death in young healthy individuals. Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation is an option for the treat...
متن کاملCatheter ablation of cardiac arrhythmias guided by electroanatomic imaging (CARTO): a single-center experience.
BACKGROUND Catheter ablation is assuming a larger role in the management of patients with cardiac arrhythmias. Conventional fluoroscopic catheter mapping has limited spatial resolution and involves prolonged fluoroscopy. The non-fluoroscopic electroanatomic mapping technique (CARTO) has been developed to overcome these drawbacks. OBJECTIVES To report the early and late outcome in patients wit...
متن کاملRemote magnetic navigation to guide endocardial and epicardial catheter mapping of scar-related ventricular tachycardia.
BACKGROUND The present study examines the safety and feasibility of using a remote magnetic navigation system to perform endocardial and epicardial substrate-based mapping and radiofrequency ablation in patients with scar-related ventricular tachycardia (VT). METHODS AND RESULTS Using the magnetic navigation system, we performed 27 procedures on 24 consecutive patients with a history of VT re...
متن کاملOutcomes of catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia in arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND Prior studies evaluating the efficacy of catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) among patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy (ARVD/C) have reported varied outcomes. More recently, studies have suggested that an epicardial ablation is necessary for improved outcomes after catheter ablation of VT. The overall objective of the present study wa...
متن کاملNon-contact mapping to guide catheter ablation of untolerated ventricular tachycardia.
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...
