AI Article Synopsis
- Catheter ablation is a key treatment for ventricular arrhythmias, which are irregular heartbeats that can be problematic.
- It’s important to be aware of the potential adverse effects that can arise from this treatment, despite its effectiveness.
- The case highlighted involves a patient who was found to have ventricular pseudoaneurysms, a rare complication, after undergoing catheter ablation for persistent ventricular tachycardia that did not respond to medication.
Article Abstract
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. ().
