Hybrid video-assisted thoracoscopic radiofrequency ablation of recurrent ventricular tachycardia in a patient with desmoplakin cardiomyopathy

Desmoplakin (DSP) cardiomyopathy is an inherited left-dominant arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy associated with heart failure, epicardial ventricular fibrosis, and ventricular arrhythmias (VA). Inflammation may play a potential role in its pathophysiology given that myocarditis-like episodes ("hot-phase
