Catheter ablation of the left ventricular outflow tract tachycardia from the left atrium
Abstract
RF ablation of idiopathic left ventricular outflow tract ventricular tachycardia (LOT-VT) may imply in significant risk of damaging the proximal left main if RF pulses are being delivered from the left sinus of Valsalva or from inside an epicardial coronary vein. This report describes a new approach to control LOT-VT by means of RF catheter ablation.
