Abstract Background: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) often complicated with multiple arrhythmias, especially ventricular arrhythmias, including sustained ventricular tachycardia (SVT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) are often presages progressive heart failure in 48 hours. The present study reports a case of electrical storm (ES) occurring in an 84-year-old woman with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Case presentation: With the defibrillations or amiodarone, the recurrence of ventricular tachycardia inhibited and the electrocardiographic pattern normalized.Conclusions: The results suggest that defibrillations and amiodarone may be able to improve the survival rate of patients with ES with AMI and would be considered as an alternative treatment for implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) and invasive catheter ablation in the management of cardiac ES.

Abstract We report a case with Ebstein’s anomaly and pulmonary atresia with sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia in a patient without a ventriculotomy history. In the low voltage area between the atrialised right ventricle and hypoplastic right ventricle, there was a ventricular tachycardia substrate and slow conduction. The tachycardia circuit was eliminated by a point catheter ablation at the area with diastolic fractionated potentials.
