title: [Idiopathic ventricular tachycardia].
abstract: Idiopathic is a nonspecific term applied to cases of ventricular tachycardia occurring in patients without overt heart disease or obvious precipitating circumstances. This arrhythmia should always be considered a diagnosis of exclusion. Periodic re-evaluation of patients with idiopathic arrhythmias should be performed to be certain that abnormalities do not develop.
