In‐Hospital Outcomes of Ventricular Tachycardia Catheter Ablation in the Presence of Intra‐Cardiac Thrombus
In patients undergoing non-elective VT ablation, intracardiac thrombus was associated with higher rates of in-hospital complications, but not higher in-hospital mortality. These findings suggest that intracardiac thrombus should not contraindicate VT ablation when deemed necessary, while efforts should be made to decrease potential complications.
