Catheter ablation
Catheter ablation is an important therapeutic option for recurrent ventricular arrhythmias in patients with structural heart disease, utilizing scar mapping techniques to target arrhythmogenic areas.
Cite This Study
Zeppenfeld et al. (2008) conducted a review in Ventricular tachycardia in patients with structural heart disease. Catheter ablation was evaluated. Catheter ablation is an important therapeutic option for controlling recurrent ventricular arrhythmias in patients with structural heart disease, targeting arrhythmogenic areas of ventricular scar.
