VT diagnosis via EP criteria warrants consideration in young DCM patients with wide QRS tachycardia; leaves open optimal management strategies.
Case Report (n=1)
Incessant ventricular tachycardia can be abolished by mechanical catheter manipulation, highlighting the potential efficacy of catheter ablation for this arrhythmia.
Blomström‐Lundqvist et al. (1990) conducted a case report in Incessant ventricular tachycardia (n=1). Catheter manipulation in the left ventricle was evaluated on Abolishment of tachycardia. Catheter manipulation in the left ventricle unexpectedly abolished incessant ventricular tachycardia in a 22-year-old man, with no recurrence during 3 years of follow-up.
