摘要
Patients with structural heart disease are at risk for life-threatening ventricular tachycardias (VTs). Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) can terminate VT, but often at the cost of traumatic shocks, syncope, or even exacerbation of underlying heart disease. Catheter ablation for VT can reduce the need for ICD therapies and is an increasingly important adjunct to the treatment of these patients.
