Objectives: This study aimed to assess the benefit after ablation of premature ventricular complexes (PVC) in patients with frequent PVC and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, regardless of previous structural heart disease (SHD) diagnosis, PVC morphology, or estimated site of origin.
Background: Ablation of PVC in patients with LV dysfunction is usually restricted to patients with suspected PVC-induced cardiomyopathy.
Methods: Consecutive patients with frequent PVC and LV dysfunction accepted for ablation at 4 centers were prospectively included.
