“…Finally, if VT can be induced that is slow enough to support the circulation during mapping, catheter ablation of the VT circuit may be considered on the basis of the risks and benefits to the individual patient. 171,172 Although reports of ablation for VT in ACHD patients are still limited to small series, it appears that it can be accomplished with a reasonable degree of acute success 173,174 ; however, the risk of VT recurrence after ablation is now being more clearly defined and may exceed 20%. 174 It seems wise to reserve ablation as isolated VT therapy for those CHD patients with superior hemodynamics and single circuits of slow tachycardia, and even then, to perform follow-up stimulation studies to ensure that the same or different circuits cannot be induced before dismissing the need for an implantable cardioverter defibrillator.…”
