Demonstration of a right ventricular substrate of ventricular tachycardia after myocardial infarction

Takumi Yamada et al. Europace. 2011 Jan.

Abstract

A 57-year-old man with prior anteroseptal myocardial infarction underwent catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) exhibiting a left bundle branch block QRS morphology. After failed left ventricular ablation, catheter ablation from the right ventricle (RV) eliminated the VT. An RV voltage map demonstrated an area of low voltage around the successful ablation site that likely allowed for a VT substrate.
