Advances in Ablation?
I have inducible VT and currently have an ICD. Are there any new advances in developing techniques for ablation? Thank you.
i have WPW syndrom and im only 16, and doctors have tried to "burn" the extra electrical nodes out of my heart you see i have 4electrical nodes instead of one to make the heart beat,..my question is this doctors failed to help me because the "orginal" nerve is to close to the other 4nerves is there anything that can be done or is this something im going to have to live with for the rest of my life
please reply back

Dear Roger,
I am assuming you have coronary artery disease and a low ejection fraction. For VT in this setting ICD is still the gold standard. There may be some advances in biventricular pacing/ICD soon but so far nothing new.
