Abstract

Left cardiac sympathetic denervation (LCSD) has been proposed as useful therapy for long QT syndrome (LQTS) and catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), in addition to anti-arrhythmic agents and implantable cardioverter defibrillators. This study aimed to assess the current evidence for LCSD and compare the open vs the video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) approaches.
