Introduction: Mutations in EMD are related to an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. There is a lack of data concerning ventricular arrhythmia ablation in Emery-Dreifuss patients.

Methods And Results: We present a case of successful ablation of a short-coupled ventricular ectopy (VE) triggering recurrent ventricular fibrillation (VF) episodes in a EMD patient with an intraseptal substrate.

Background: Idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF) can be associated with undetected distinct conditions such as microstructural cardiomyopathic alterations (MiCM) or Purkinje (Purk) activities with structurally normal hearts.

Objectives: This study sought to evaluate the characteristics of recurrent VF recorded on implantable defibrillator electrograms, associated with these substrates.

Methods: This was a multicenter collaboration study.
