Abstract
Advances in the field of human genetics have led to an accumulating understanding of the genetic basis of distinct nonischemic cardiomyopathies associated with ventricular tachycardias (VTs) and sudden cardiac death. To date, there is an increasing proportion of patients with inherited cardiomyopathies requiring catheter ablation for VTs. This review provides an overview of disease-causing gene mutations frequently encountered and relevant for clinical electrophysiologists. Available data on VT ablation in patients with an inherited etiology and a phenotype of a nondilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy are summarized. VTs amenable to catheter ablation are related to nonischemic fibrosis. Recent insights into genotype-phenotype relations of subtype and location of fibrosis have important implications for treatment planning. Current strategies to delineate nonischemic fibrosis and related arrhythmogenic substrates using multimodal imaging, image integration, and electroanatomical mapping are provided. The ablation approach depends on substrate location and extension. Related procedural aspects including patient-tailored (enhanced) ablation strategies and outcomes are outlined. Challenging substrates for VT and the underlying inherited etiologies with a high risk for rapid progressive heart failure contribute to poor outcomes after catheter ablation. Electroanatomical data obtained during ablation may allow the identification of patients at particular risk who need to be considered for early work-up for left ventricular assist device implantation or heart transplantation.
