Papillary Muscle Ablation

Ablation not totally successful as the origin of the PVC’s was deep in the papillary muscle and after 7 hours and 40 burns they did not want to risk damage to the mitral valve. PVC’s continue post procedure. Plus, they were unable to induce the exercise induced VT. So it is back to the med route, this time going with Rhytmol.

Anyone else have problematic areas for ablation such as the papillary muscle area in the left ventricular?
