Determining optimal treatment strategies for complex arrhythmogenesis in AF is confounded by the lack of consensus on the mechanisms causing AF. Fundamental to defining arrhythmogenic mechanisms of AF are the distinctions and interplay between functional features (determined by the electrophysiology of a cell) and structural features (determined by whether a structural or anatomical feature is…

The reported incidence of congenital heart disease (CHD) depends on the number of trivial lesions included, such as atrial and ventricular septal defects (ASDs and VSDs). Moderate-to-severe CHD numbers remain stable with 6 per 1,000 live births.1 Survival into adulthood has improved dramatically over the last 25 years and has been driven mainly by a decreased mortality in moderate and severe…

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) originating from the Purkinje system is the most common type of idiopathic left ventricular tachycardia (ILVT), especially among young Asians.1,2 It usually has a benign course. Research over the past two decades has deepened our understanding of the anatomy of the Purkinje system and the mechanisms of ILVT. This review focuses on the research history and anatomy of…

Although the exact circuit of atrioventricular nodal re-entrant tachycardia (AVNRT) still eludes us, AVNRT is the most common regular arrhythmia in humans, and therefore the most commonly encountered during ablation attempts for regular tachycardias.1–4 Catheter ablation for AVNRT is the current treatment of choice in symptomatic patients. It reduces arrhythmia-related hospitalisations and costs,…

Recurrent episodes of ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with structural heart disease are associated with increased mortality and morbidity, despite the life-saving benefits of implantable cardiac defibrillators (ICDs).1,2 Because ICD therapies are abortive and do not alter the underlying arrhythmogenic substrate, their reduction becomes important, especially as recurrent shocks can cause…
