“…There are several heart field/chamber-specific CHDs including hypoplastic left heart syndrome and hypoplastic right heart syndrome 27 , 58 as well as some chamber-specific cardiomyopathies and tachyarrhythmias like arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy or right ventricular outflow track ventricular tachycardia 59 , 60 . The pathogenesis of these diseases has remained unexplored to a significant extent, partly due to the inability to obtain cardiac tissue from patients.…”

“…111,[113][114][115] Small case series have demonstrated success in the majority of these selected cases in which ablation has been performed. 113,116 Ablation for incessant ventricular arrhythmia that is producing hemodynamic deterioration can be life-saving and has been used even in young children and infants requiring extracorporeal support. 117,118 In general, however, ablation in infants and small children should be deferred until the child weighs more than 15 kg.…”

“…It occurs almost exclusively in middle-aged patients without structural heart disease, but rare pediatric cases were referred for syncope or near-syncope (Deal et al, 1986;Drago et al, 1999;O'Connor et al, 1996;Pfammater & Paul, 1999;Pfammater, Paul, & Kallfelz, 1995). Its incidence in pediatrics may be estimated around 2,8/1.000.000 childhood years (Roggen, Pavlovic, & Pfammater, 2008) and only 15% of them are symptomatic (Harris et al, 2006). It is generally considered to have an excellent prognosis unless the patient has a history of syncope, very fast tachyarrhythmia or ventricular premature beats with a short coupling interval.…”
