Key result
Radiofrequency catheter ablation successfully terminated verapamil-sensitive left ventricular tachycardia with a right bundle branch block pattern in a 21-year-old man, with no recurrence at 1 year.

May support ablation consideration in rare pleomorphic idiopathic VT; leaves open generalizability and VF risk assessment.
Case Report (n=1)
No
This case highlights the rare occurrence of pleomorphic ventricular tachycardia (both left and right ventricular origins) and ventricular fibrillation vulnerability in a patient without apparent structural heart disease.
Hirao et al. (1999) conducted a case report in Idiopathic Verapamil-Sensitive Left Ventricular Tachycardia (n=1). Radiofrequency catheter ablation was evaluated on Termination of ventricular tachycardia and prevention of recurrence. Radiofrequency catheter ablation successfully terminated verapamil-sensitive left ventricular tachycardia with a right bundle branch block pattern in a 21-year-old man, with no recurrence at 1 year.
