There is still no evidence or guidelines regarding patients with refractory VT; however, ECMO support has been successfully used during VT ablation procedures. In this case report, VT ablation had a crucial role in treating the culprit arrhythmia while the implementation of ECMO allowed a complex ablation procedure to be completed safely.
