With the increasing literature demonstrating benefits of catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia (VT), the number of patients undergoing VT ablation has increased dramatically. As VT ablation is being performed more routinely, operators must be aware of potential complications of VT ablation. This review delves deeper into the practice of VT ablation with a focus on periprocedural complications.
