Abstract EN
A 20 year-old male was admitted with a history of recurrent palpitations from 5 years.
Baseline ECG revealed premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) with delta waves.
Stress ECG showed short non-sustained Ventricular tachycardia (VT).
Echocardiography showed moderate dilation of the left ventricle with mild reduced systolic function and Ejection fraction was estimated to be 42%.
Right ventricle was mildly dilated and hypokinetic.
Both atria were mildly dilated.
The patient referred to CVC for EP study with possible ablation.
The ablation of the focus led to complete suppression of the ectopy.
Post-procedure ECG and echocardiography showed normalized rhythm and systolic function.
