Point ablation for macro-reentrant ventricular tachycardia associated with Ebstein's anomaly and pulmonary atresia: a case report

Cardiol Young. 2021 Feb;31(2):315-317. doi: 10.1017/S1047951120003820. Epub 2020 Nov 11.

Abstract

We report a case with Ebstein's anomaly and pulmonary atresia with sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia in a patient without a ventriculotomy history. In the low voltage area between the atrialised right ventricle and hypoplastic right ventricle, there was a ventricular tachycardia substrate and slow conduction. The tachycardia circuit was eliminated by a point catheter ablation at the area with diastolic fractionated potentials.

Keywords: Ebstein’s anomaly; Point ablation; total cavopulmonary connection; ventricular tachycardia.
