Management of refractory intramural left ventricular summit ventricular arrhythmia: Acute success using bipolar radiofrequency catheter ablation with recurrence

Bipolar radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) is a novel strategy for refractory or recurrent ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) resistant to conventional ablation methods. Lesions created during bipolar RFCA are larger than those created during sequential unipolar ablation. We present a case of refrac...

Sumario:Bipolar radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) is a novel strategy for refractory or recurrent ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) resistant to conventional ablation methods. Lesions created during bipolar RFCA are larger than those created during sequential unipolar ablation. We present a case of refractory LV summit VAs, which identified the origin using a 2.7‐F over‐the‐wire microelectrodes catheter, and it was successfully treated with bipolar RFCA in the acute phase.[Image: see text]
