摘要
Left ventricular (LV) myocardial perforation is a rare complication following ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation with radiofrequency (RF); this complication should be diagnosed and treated promptly. LV free wall rupture after elective RF ablation for sustained VT refractory to medical treatment is rarely reported in the medical literature. Herein we discuss an interesting case which contributes to the ongoing literature, regarding a patient who developed LV perforation due to RF ablation for VT which was resistant to pharmacotherapy and repeated cardioversion attempts after acute myocardial infarction.
