[Endocavitary fulguration in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmia].
Fulguration of the heart cavities seems currently to be a technique of increasing value in the treatment of untractable arrhythmias, of supraventricular junctional or ventricular origin. This study represents the evaluation of our experience with 64 patients, maximum follow-up is 54 months and the minimum follow-up is 7 months. Although the results are quite satisfactory in the fulguration of the bundle of his and in the fulguration of the arrhythmic site inducing ventricular tachycardia, these results are inferior in the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome in which fulguration of the coronary sinus seems contraindicated al filter (LEM type), resulting in the death of the patient. It is a true, early (1st week) migration after accurate positioning, opposite L4, and not an incident of insertion.
