Cardiovascular Diseases and Cardiac Surgery

Overview

Mayo Clinic cardiology experts Abhishek J. Deshmukh, M.B.B.S., Christopher V. DeSimone, M.D., Ph.D., and Siva K. Mulpuru, M.D., M.P.H., provide insight into troubleshooting common and complex premature ventricular contraction (PVC) ablations. This case-based presentation illustrates the approach and shows how to tackle challenging situations.

Drs. Deshmukh, DeSimone and Mulpuru discuss how best to approach common complex PVCs including those in the left ventricular (LV) summit, LV papillary muscle and peripulmonic regions. They also provide insight into troubleshooting complex case scenarios and alternative approaches.

The discussion includes important anatomical considerations regarding critical sites for PVC ablation and how to best optimize efficacy and safety during procedures.
