This article provides a theoretical and practical background on the use of catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia occurring late after myocardial infarction.
Ventricular tachycardia can be controlled by radiofrequency or chemical ablation of the site of origin of the arrhythmia. However, these techniques are far from being accepted as routine treatment for this problem. This article describes the theoretical and practical background of catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia occurring late after myocardial infarction.
