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.

AbstractCatheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia is often difficult in patients after surgery for CHD. In patients with a ventricular septal defect patch, it is necessary to decide which ventricular side is appropriate for catheter ablation. In this article, we report a case of successful point catheter ablation of re-entrant ventricular tachycardia. Identification of the ventricular septal defect patch using intra-cardiac echocardiography was useful.

AbstractObjectiveMost idiopathic right ventricular tachycardias originate from the outflow tract. We present a case series of idiopathic incessant ventricular tachycardia arising from unusual sites of the right ventricle in children, which were well resolved by catheter ablation.MethodsA retrospective review was performed of all three patients who underwent ablation of idiopathic ventricular tachycardia below the level of the right ventricular outflow tract using three-dimensional mapping in our institute.ResultAll three patients presented with tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy due to incessant ventricular tachycardia on first admission. The sites of successful ablation were at the proximal right bundle branch, distal right bundle branch, and apex of the right ventricle, respectively. No complications occurred, and there has been no recurrence of ventricular tachycardia after the final ablation at an average follow-up period of 9 months. All three patients have achieved normalisation of left ventricular size and systolic function.ConclusionIncessant idiopathic ventricular tachycardia originating from unusual sites of the right ventricle in children, resulting in significant symptoms and impaired ventricular function, can be successfully treated with catheter ablation.

Abstract Background The incidence of ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients following Fontan operation is reported as 3.5%. Furthermore, in patients with repaired double outlet right ventricle (DORV), scar-related VT and outflow tract VT have been reported; however, Purkinje-related VT has not previously been reported. In this report, we present the case of idiopathic left VT (ILVT) in a patient with DORV who underwent Fontan operation. Case summary A 31-year-old man was diagnosed as having DORV with complete atrioventricular defect at birth. When he was 17 years old, he underwent surgical repair, including extracardiac Fontan operation and common atrioventricular valve replacement. Five years later, VT was detected. Since some medications were ineffective in suppressing VT, he was referred to our hospital for definitive treatment. Ventricular tachycardia was induced by atrial and ventricular programmed electrical stimulations. The mechanism of the VT was determined to be re-entry. The earliest activation site was located at the mid-inferior septum of the hypoplastic left ventricle, in which Purkinje potentials were observed before the local ventricular electrogram. Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) was performed at this site to eliminate VT. Discussion Most VTs originate from surgical scars in patients with congenital heart disease. Catheter ablation was feasible in scar-related VT. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of ILVT treated successfully with RFCA in a DORV patient who had undergone Fontan operation.

Abstract We describe a 15-year-old girl who underwent intraoperative catheter ablation for the ventricular tachycardia associated with Ebstein’s anomaly with functional pulmonary atresia and a small right ventricle (RV) after Fontan surgery. The computed tomography showed the dilated right atrium and RV due to the failure of RV plication. The activation mapping revealed that the ventricular tachycardia showed a focal pattern originating from the atrialized RV (aRV). With careful preparations, the procedure of catheter ablation combined with the adjustment of Starnes fenestration and plication of RV/atrialized RV was very effective for this patient.
