Structured PICO

Does transcoronary cusp radiofrequency catheter ablation abolish ventricular tachycardia in a patient with repetitive LVOT tachycardia?

P
Population
A patient with repetitive left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) tachycardia exhibiting atypical left bundle branch block and inferior axis
I
Intervention
Transcoronary cusp radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation
O
Outcome
Abolition of ventricular tachycardia

Transcoronary cusp RF catheter ablation represents a novel and effective approach for treating LVOT tachycardia originating near the left sinus of Valsalva.

Limitations

  • The application of this approach to the other types of VT has yet to be determined.
  • Application to other types of VT has yet to be determined
