Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia After Myocardial Infarction

Abstract

Radiofrequency catheter ablation controls VT that is sufficiently stable to allow mapping in 67% of patients despite failure of antiarrhythmic drug therapy and multiple inducible VTs. However, ablation was largely adjunctive to amiodarone and defibrillators in this referral population.
