An Infrequent Complication of VT Ablation: Should We Perform Delayed Routine Imaging After Steam Pops?

Catheter ablation has become the cornerstone of the treatment of ventricular arrythmias. Nevertheless, it is crucial to recognize the adverse effects of such treatment. We present a case of an incidental diagnosis of ventricular pseudoaneurysms after catheter ablation for treatment of drug-refractor...

Sumario:Catheter ablation has become the cornerstone of the treatment of ventricular arrythmias. Nevertheless, it is crucial to recognize the adverse effects of such treatment. We present a case of an incidental diagnosis of ventricular pseudoaneurysms after catheter ablation for treatment of drug-refractory nonsustained runs of ventricular tachycardia. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
