Recurrent Ventricular Arrhythmia After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Treated With Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation
Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 01/27/09
Atik FA et al. - A 63-year-old diabetic woman was emergently submitted to coronary artery bypass grafting in the setting of acute myocardial infarction. Radiofrequency catheter ablation was performed at sites where Purkinje potentials were recorded, leading to arrhythmia cessation. A week later, an implantable cardioverter defibrillator was inserted and she was discharged home a few days later. At 15-month follow-up, there were no further episodes of arrhythmia and ventricular function had improved.
