Successful Catheter Ablation of Electrical Storm After Myocardial Infarction

Abstract

Incessant ventricular tachyarrhythmias after MI may be triggered by VPBs. RF ablation of the triggering VPBs is feasible and can prevent drug-resistant electrical storm, even after acute MI. Catheter ablation of the triggering VPBs may be used as a bailout therapy in these patients.
