Résumé
Surgery for ventricular tachycardia (VT) is indicated in patients in whom pharmacotherapy or catheter ablation is ineffective or frequent VT attacks are not suppressed or with frequent activation of implantable cardioverter defibrillator. In ischemic VT, resection of fibrous endocardium combined with encircling cryothermia at the border between the infarcted and normal myocardium is performed. In surgery for VT associated with cardiomyopathy, close collaboration between the physician and surgeon is important and intraoperative mapping using electro-anatomic mapping system is helpful. In VT associated with cardiac tumors, cryothermia of the thinned subepicardial myocardium at the edge of the tumor is recommended in addition to resection of tumors.
