PubMed, Cochrane Library, and ScienceDirect were searched from inception through January 2026. Eligible studies were comparative cohorts reporting periprocedural or long\u2010term outcomes.

Acute procedural endpoints, including post\u2010ablation VT non\u2010inducibility and residual inducible VT, were similar between groups. Periprocedural or in\u2010hospital mortality was significantly higher in the ES group (OR 4.71, 95% CI 2.76\u20138.06), whereas complication rates, procedural duration, radiofrequency ablation time, and need for hemodynamic support did not differ significantly. During follow\u2010up, ES was associated with higher all\u2010cause mortality (OR 1.67, 95% CI 1.19\u20132.35) and greater VT recurrence in both arm\u2010based (OR 1.45, 95% CI 1.11\u20131.91) and time\u2010to\u2010event analyses (HR 1.35, 95% CI 1.16\u20131.57).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>VT ablation showed comparable acute procedural success and procedural safety in patients with and without ES.
