## Abstract

Dieser Beitrag widmet sich dem Thema ventrikuläre Arrhythmie ohne vorliegende strukturelle Herzerkrankung. Die zugrunde liegenden Ursachen sind vielfältig und noch nicht komplett verstanden. Beginnend bei der Erstbeschreibung dieser Art der Arrhythmie nähern wir uns über die Diagnostik der Therapie mittels Medikamenten und schließlich der Katheterablation von den Anfängen bis hin zur den modernsten aktuellen und zukünftigen Methoden.
