Ventricular aneurysm with ventricular tachycardia. Report of a case with epicardial mapping and successful resection

A case of ventricular aneurysm with refractory ventricular tachycardia is presented. Epicardial mapping was used to localize the site of earliest epicardial activity to the margin of the aneurysm, and subsequent resection of this area abolished the rhythm disturbance.
