Endocardial mapping and ablation targeting surviving Purkinje bundles is discussed as a strategy for post-MI polymorphic ventricular arrhythmias.
Polymorphic ventricular arrhythmias (ventricular fibrillation VF and polymorphic ventricular tachycardia PMVT) are serious complications of acute myocardial infarction (MI). These arrhythmias typically occur shortly after an MI and are a challenging situation owing to the frequent progression to an electrical storm.1,2 The central role of surviving bundles from the Purkinje system in this condition has been previously demonstrated, namely by endocardial mapping and ablation.3–6
Charton et al. (Thu,) conducted a other in Post-myocardial infarction ventricular fibrillation and polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. Stepwise ablation strategy was evaluated.
