Demonstrates the feasibility of successful radiofrequency catheter ablation for idiopathic ventricular tachycardia originating in the main stem of the pulmonary artery.
Timmermans et al. (2002) conducted a case report in Idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (n=1). Radiofrequency catheter ablation was evaluated on Termination and noninducibility of VT, freedom from VT recurrences. Radiofrequency catheter ablation successfully terminated an idiopathic ventricular tachycardia originating in the main stem of the pulmonary artery, with no recurrences at 6 months.
