Catheter-based ablation has been a well-established tool in the treatment of ventricular tachycardia (VT). However, the effectiveness of catheter ablation may be limited by its ability to access sites of arrhythmogenic tissue and achieve adequate lesion size in target areas without risking collateral damage. Antiarrhythmic surgery would be an effective alternative in such situations. Despite the…

Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation is currently the treatment of choice in patients with accessory pathways (APs) and Wolff– Parkinson–White syndrome, and is shown to have a success rate >95 %.1 APs usually have endocardial ventricular and atrial insertions, located close to the atrioventricular valve rings, making most endocardial catheter ablation procedures relatively straightforward and…

Percutaneous ablation for ventricular tachycardia (VT) was first attempted in 1983 and has rapidly evolved to become an important option for controlling recurrent VTs.1 Endocardial ablation remained the only percutaneous approach until epicardial access was introduced by Sosa et al. in 1996 and thereafter became progressively more available as an adjunctive strategy for the treatment of…

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…

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is one of the most challenging medical conditions faced by cardiac patients and physicians treating them. Antiarrhythmic medications have limited effectiveness and are frequently poorly tolerated.1–4 Catheter ablation is increasingly used to treat patients successfully.1,5–7 Most VTs can be ablated endocardially but some require epicardial mapping and ablation…
