Catheter Ablation for Electrical Storm as Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia in a Case with Ischemic Cardiomyopathy after Coronary Artery Bypass Graft

We report a case involving a patient with ischemic cardiomyopathy who developed polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (PVT) and ventricular fibrillation storm after coronary artery bypass graft. Because PVT was initiated by various right bundle branch type premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), we...
