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,…

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is associated with increased mortality in patients with a history of MI. ICD implantation is currently the standard of care for the prevention of sudden cardiac death, and contributes to a reduction of total mortality.1 Despite effective treatment of ventricular arrhythmias with the use of anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) or shocks, ICDs do not prevent VT. Furthermore,…
