CURRENT STATUS OF CATHETER ABLATION FOR IDIOPATHIC VENTRICULAR ECTOPIC ARRHYTHMIAS. PART 1

https://doi.org/10.17802/2306-1278-2013-4-94-101

Abstract

In the first part of this review article the evolution of ventricular arrhythmia concepts, which is classified nowadays to be idiopathic, are highlighted. The questions about the benign nature and ‘idiopathy’ of ventricular arrhythmias in patients without any structural heart diseases are discussed.
