Trans-catheteral ablation is an important therapeutic method for nonpharmacological management of various types of cardiac arrhythmias. Since its introduction into clinical practice in 1982, it has proved its efficacy in disturbance or change of the type of atrioventricular conduction and conduction along accessory abnormal atrioventricular conduction pathways. Positive results have also been attained in the treatment of some patients with ventricular tachycardia. The energy sources used for ablation include direct current pulses possessing large energy, high-frequency currents, and laser energy. Ablation with direct current and high-frequency current is already used successfully in patients, while the use of laser energy for ablation of myocardial arrhythmogenic tissue is limited mainly to operations on the open heart. The use of alternating high-frequency current has attracted particular attention in the last years. Trans-coronary chemical ablation is another recently introduced method which is not connected with the use of electric current. Only experimental and a small clinical experience with this new method has been gained to date. This survey systemasizes the current knowledge of the biophysical bases of the various method of ablation from the standpoint of the mechanisms of treatment, the methodology and the main types of tissue response. Clinical experience with trans-catheteral treatment of cardiac arrhythmias is analysed.
