- Abstract
Background Ablation failures are common in case of intramural location of the arrhythmogenic substrate. Case summary We report the case of a patient with cardiomyopathy contributed by frequent monomorphic ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) from intramural basal interventricular septum treated with double-balloon venous ethanol ablation (VEA) after a previous failed endocardial radiofrequency (RF) ablation. Discussion Double-balloon VEA represents a safe and effective therapeutic option in case of intramural VAs also in the absence of venous collaterals joining selectively an intramural arrhythmic substrate.
