Although the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator effectively prevents sudden cardiac death, patients are still prone to recurrence of ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Electrophysiologically guided surgery is the most effective modality in abolishing ventricular tachycardia, having a lower recurrence rate than pharmacologic therapy or catheter ablation. Return cycle mapping after entrainment has been shown to localize the central common pathway, which is the target region for ablation, without pacing at the pathway or recording the potentials from the pathway.
