Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia in a Patient with a Left Ventricular Assist Device Successfully Treated with Stellate Ganglion Phototherapy: A Case Report

Published: May 18, 2020
Abstract
Neuraxial modulation therapies, such as stellate ganglion block, thoracic epidural anesthesia, and cardiac sympathetic denervation, are effective for ventricular arrhythmias. However, these treatments are invasive and can increase the risk of bleeding and infection.
