Aneurysmectomy for symptomatic supraventricular tachycardia associated with ventricular aneurysm.
A case of left ventricular aneurysm associated with repeated supraventricular tachyarrhythmias was successfully treated by ventricular aneurysmectomy. Ventricular aneurysmectomy should be considered for supraventricular tachyarrhythmia as well as ventricular tachycardia, if they are symptomatic and refractory to medical therapy.
