مستخلص: Abstract  Idiopathic outflow tract ventricular tachycardia (VT) can arise from the right (RVOT) or left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT). The electrocardiographic (ECG) pattern of RVOT VT is typical in most patients, showing a monomorphic left bundle branch block (LBBB) QRS morphology with an inferior axis. Radiofrequency catheter ablation can be performed with a high success rate and provides a curative therapeutic approach. However, not all VTs with LBBB and inferior axis can be ablated from the RVOT. It has become apparent that LVOT VTs including VT originating from the aortic sinus of Valsalva or epicardium represent underrecognized VT entities which are also amenable to successful catheter ablation. Twelve-lead ECG criteria can contribute to distinguish between sites of VT origin. LVOT arrhythmias represent an increasingly recognized VT entity which can be safely and successfully treated by catheter ablation. Identification of VT origin using ECG criteria and differentiation of LVOT versus RVOT origin is essential in the careful planning of the ablation strategy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
