Lee et al. (2026) conducted a case report in Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (n=1). Anti-arrhythmic medications, Impella-CP, and implantable defibrillator was evaluated. Management of refractory polymorphic ventricular tachycardia in a 53-year-old male post-myocardial infarction ultimately required an implantable defibrillator after failing medical therapy.
