Catheter ablation of VT in non-ischaemic cardiomyopathies: endocardial, epicardial and intramural approaches
Non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy (NICM) encompasses a heterogeneous group of disorders
that includes genetic, idiopathic, post viral and inflammatory cardiomyopathies. NICM is
associated with an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias (VAs), namely in the form of
ventricular tachycardia (VT). Although implanted cardiac defibrillators (ICD) may prevent
sudden death from VA, NICM patients may suffer from recurrent symptoms and ICD
therapies, and anti-arrhythmic drug side effects. Catheter ablation is highly efficacious in …
