Özet
We report a case of a 63-year-old man with incessant ventricular tachycardia (VT) who was treated by left ventricular (LV) mapping
and radiofrequency catheter ablation. The ablation procedure was complicated since the patient had undergone aortic prosthetic
valve surgery before. Left ventricular catheterization through the mechanical aortic valve is not routinely performed because
of the risks involved as they may damage or ‘jam the occluder’. In our patient ablation of ventricular tachycardia was achieved
via transseptal approach and through the mitral valve. During the follow-up period of two years, the patient remained free from
implantable cardioverter defibrillator shocks.
