The introduction of cardiac electroanatomic mapping systems in the mid-1990s has permitted investigators to record intracardiac electrograms (EGMs) with accurate spatial localisation in 3D.1 These 3D mapping systems have enabled the display of the cardiac chambers as an anatomical shell upon which voltage, or activation, information can be displayed. Most commonly, colour is used to represent the… View more

Idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias (IVAs) usually originate from the specific anatomical structures. For the past decade, major IVA origins from both endocardial and epicardial sites have been increasingly recognised (see Table 1).1–3 Catheter ablation of IVAs is usually safe and highly successful, but can sometimes be challenging because of the anatomical obstacles. Therefore, understanding the… View more

Catheter ablation has moved from ablation of ‘simple’ substrates like accessory pathways,1 atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardias (AVNRTs)2 and re-entrant or focal tachycardia (of either ventricular or atrial origin)3–5 in recent years to more complex arrhythmias such as atrial or ventricular tachycardia (VT) or fibrillation.6–8 Even patients with complex congenital heart disease that may… View more

Dear Sir, I read with great interest the elegant review by Mukherjee and colleagues on prophylactic VT ablation in the latest issue of the journal (AER 6(3)125-8).1 The concept is indeed revolutionary, and should extend the boundaries of interventional electrophysiology. However, such an approach cannot be feasible without rationalising patient selection. Current guidelines’ recommendations,… View more

Idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) are comprised of ventricular premature depolarisations, non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT)and rarely sustained VT, and these typically occur in the absence of structural heart disease. In general, idiopathic VAs tend to have a benign prognosis, although a high burden of VAs can result in left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction and cardiomyopathy… View more
