CASE REPORT

Thoracoscopic mapping and cryoablation of right ventricular tachycardia

S.S. Furniss, J. Forty1, E. Simeonidou, A. Owens1, J.C. Cowan2, J.P. Bourke and R.W.F. Campbell

Department of Academic Cardiology, Freeman Hospital Newcastle upon Tyne, U.K.; 1Cardiothoracic Surgery, Freeman Hospital Newcastle upon Tyne, U.K.; 2Department of Cardiology, Leeds General Infirmary Leeds, U.K.

A 14-year-old girl with right ventricular dysplasia and recurrent drug refractory ventricular tachycardia underwent thoracoscopic mapping cryoablation. Good access to the right ventricular free wall was obtained. We suggest this technique may have an important role in the management of patients with right ventricular tachycardia.

Key Words: Right ventricular dysplasia, ventricular tachycardia (VT), thorascopic, cryoablation
