Does map-guided surgery effectively treat ventricular tachycardia in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular adiposis?
This early case series describes the evolution of surgical techniques, including right ventricular free wall disconnection, for the management of ventricular tachycardia in arrhythmogenic right ventricular adiposis.
Guiraudon et al. (1989) conducted an observational in Arrhythmogenic right ventricular adiposis with ventricular tachycardia (n=17). Map-guided surgery (conservative approach and right ventricular free wall disconnection) was evaluated. Map-guided surgery, including right ventricular free wall disconnection, was utilized to confine potential right ventricular tachycardias in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular adiposis.
