CONGRESS ABSTRACT

Background: Ventricular pulsed field ablation (PFA) is increasingly adopted for ventricular arrhythmias, yet the evidence base remains fragmented. Purpose: To pool outcomes of ventricular PFA across indications (PVC, VT), estimate between-study heterogeneity, and test robustness in analyses restricted to cohorts with ≥3 patients. Methods: We performed a systematic review…

Background: Ventricular tachycardia (VT) with a left bundle branch block (LBBB) morphology and inferior axis is classically associated with idiopathic right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) arrhythmias. However, overlapping electrocardiographic patterns may conceal an underlying arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, particularly when multiple VT morphologies coexist. Case Presentation: A 61-year-old man presented to…

Background Mitral valve prolapse (MVP), historically regarded as a benign valvular condition, has progressively gained attention for its potential arrhythmic implications. A subset of patients exhibits ventricular ectopy or complex arrhythmias, sometimes in the absence of significant valvular dysfunction. In this context, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) has become essential…

A 76 y.o. patient presented to E.R. after the onset of dyspnea. The ECG showed a tachyarrhythmia (QRS width 115 ms) at 150 bpm with LAFB and a RBBB morphology, with regularly inscribed P within the QRS. Electrical cardioversion was performed, restoring SR with persistent deep negative T waves…

Background Catheter ablation is a key therapeutic strategy for ventricular tachycardia (VT). Nonetheless, a standardized gold-standard procedural strategy has yet to be defined. Methods We retrospectively analysed all consecutive patients treated with VT ablation at our centre between May 2011 and August 2025. The impact of procedural variables on…
