Integration of a surgical bipolar ablation device within an electroanatomical mapping system during epicardial ventricular tachycardia ablation via video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery: a case report
Epicardial VT ablation via VATS is feasible and allows for integration of a surgical ablation device within an EAM system. This may serve as an alternative approach in patients with a failed percutaneous ablation, or those with adverse features for a successful percutaneous procedure.
