Epicardial Ablation For Ventricular Tachycardia

Epicardial Ablation For Ventricular Tachycardia

Epicardial ablation has lately become a necessary tool to approach some ventricular tachycardias in different types of cardiomyopathy. Its diffusion is now limited to a few high volume centers not because of the difficulty of the pericardial puncture but since it requires high competence not only in...
