Role of the His-Purkinje system in the genesis of cardiac arrhythmia
Heart Rhythm, 06/30/09
Scheinman MM et al. - Exciting newer discoveries strongly implicate the Purkinje system as the cause of ventricular arrhythmias in patients with short-coupled premature ventricular complexes and in those with catecholaminergic polymorphous ventricular tachycardia. The role of the His-Purkinje system in the genesis and maintenance of ventricular fibrillation is yet another frontier for fertile investigation. A rich variety of cardiac arrhythmias appears to involve the ventricular specialized conduction system and may be amenable to ablative therapy.
