Résumé
Ventricular arrhythmias present with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations, from mildly symptomatic frequent premature ventricular contractions to life-threatening events. Pathophysiologically, idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias occur in the absence of structural heart disease or ion channelopathies. Ventricular arrhythmias in the context of structural heart disease are usually determined by scar-related reentry and are associated with increased mortality. Catheter ablation is safe and highly effective in treating ventricular arrhythmias. The proper characterization of the arrhythmogenic substrate is essential for accurate procedural planning. We provide an overview on the main mechanisms of ventricular arrhythmias and their implications for catheter ablation.
