Epicardial and Endocardial Ablation Based on Channel Mapping in Patients With Ventricular Tachycardia and Chronic Chagasic Cardiomyopathy: Importance of Late Potential Mapping During Sinus Rhythm to Recognize the Critical Substrate.

Background Ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy (CCC) is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Catheter ablation of VT in patients with CCC is very complex and challenging. The main goal of this work was to assess the efficacy of VT catheter ablation guided by late potentials (LPs) in patients with CCC.
