Safety and Efficacy of Epicardial Ablation of Ventricular Tachyarrhythmias: Experience from a Tertiary Referral Center in Taiwan.

Abstract

In this tertiary referral center's experience, the complication rate of an epicardial approach was acceptable. Patients with NICM displayed a growing trend for a referral for epicardial ablation. The long-term follow-up demonstrated that an epicardial ablation for idiopathic VAs and BrS was associated with a better prognosis than that for the other etiologies.
