Papillary Muscle Ventricular Arrhythmia

Date: April, 15, 2012

Speaker: Wen-Yu Lin

Institute: Tri-Service General Hospital

Advanced Cardiac Arrhythmia Training Course

Brief History

• A 59-year-old man with history of hypertension

• Habitus of cigarette smoking 1/2PPD for more than 30 years

• Alcohol consumption:-

• Betel nuts chewing:-

• He has previous VT attack since 2005 and ever received catheter ablation in Kaohsiung hospital

• But it recurred

Brief History

• June, 26, 2007 Admitted to Taipei VGH with diagnosis of left anterior fascicular ventricular tachycardia and underwent catheter ablation

• However, episodes of VT recurrence developed and he received DC shock at local hospital in Dec, 2010

• Dec, 22, 2010, he admitted to Taipei VGH again

• TTE showed LV EF: 52%, no obvious structural heart disease

Brief History

• Baseline sinus rhythm

• CAG: patency of coronary artery

2010/12/22 RV S1S2S3 (400/350/220) induced sustained VT

VA dissociation TCL:424ms QRS duration: 168msIt is also reproducible by RA S1S1

QRS morphology: RBBB pattern, right inferior axis, rS in lead I, R/S<1 in V6,QRS duration:168ms

During sinus rhythmArrow: Purkinje potential, 24ms before QRS

Reverse of Purkinje potential

But VT is reproducible again by RV extra-stimulus

Brief History

• October, 26, 2011 (10 months after procedure), VT attack again

• November, 28, 2011 He was admitted to Taipei VGH for repeated catheter ablation

• CAG: Patent coronary arteries

2011/11/28 RV S1S2S3S4 (400/350/300/250) induced sustained VTMorphology was quite similar compare with last-time VTTCL:440ms 2010/12/22

After LV geometry and voltage map, we tried to induce VT againBut sustained VT could not be induced againSo we used pace map to find the optimal ablation site

Brief History • No further ventricular arrhythmia could be induced

by programmed stimulation (S1S2S3S4), commencing with Isoproterenol infusion

• Diagnosis:

Suspected left anterior papillary muscle ventricular tachycardia

• Follow-up:

March, 27, 2012: No clinical recurrence by medical

record

• For anterolateral region:

an R/S ratio ≤1 in lead V6 in the LV anterolateral region could be the reliable predictors for differentiating APM VAs from LAF VAs

• For posteromedial region:

a QRS duration >160ms in LV posteroseptal region could be the predictors for differentiating PPM Vas from LPF VAs

• Irrigated or 8-mm tip ablation catheter is needed

Catheter Ablation of Cardiac Arrhythmias, Second Edition

• 3-4% of idiopathic ventricular tachycardia

• Frequent PVCs are more common than sustained VT

• Papillary muscle VT should be considered if catheter ablation site around the structure

• Anterolateral papillary muscle:

RBBB, inferior axis

• Posteromedial papillary muscle:

RBBB, superior axis

• QRS duration was longer in PM VAs than fascicular VAs

Catheter Ablation of Cardiac Arrhythmias, Second Edition

• Absence of QS pattern in limb leads

• Absence of typical pre-Purkinje potential (P1) and Purkinje (P2)

• In anterolateral region, R/S<1 in V6 favor PM VTs

• In posteromedial region, QRS >160ms favor PM VTs

• If PM VT was considered, favor used irrigated or 8-mm tip catheter ablation for better successful results

• ICE should be used for optimal catheter contact if available
