An endocardial approach was used initially, with epicardial ablation procedures reserved for those patients who failed an endocardial ablation. Activation, entrainment, pace and substrate mapping strategies were used with regional ablation applied. A total of 393 ablation procedures were performed including endocardial approach only (n\u2009=\u2009377) and endo and epicardial combined (n\u2009=\u200916). Right ventricular basal free wall was accounted as the primary substrate of VT in 258 (65.6%) patients. There were 81 patients underwent redo ablation procedure (second time\u2009=\u200981; \u22653 times\u2009=\u200928). New targets were observed in 68.8% of redo procedures. There were 171 VT recurrences and 19 deaths occurred during the follow-up. Ventricular tachycardia-free survival rate of the first, second, and last ablation procedure was 56.7%, 73.2%, and 78.1%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed \u22653 induced VTs in the procedure was correlated with rehospitalized VT recurrence [hazard ratio (HR) 1.467, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.052\u20132.046; P\u2009=\u20090.024]. For all-cause mortality, rehospitalized VT and \u22653 induced VTs were the independent risk factors (HR 2.954, 95% CI 1.8068.038; P\u2009=\u20090.034; HR 3.189, 95% CI 1.073\u20139.482; P\u2009=\u20090.037).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Endocardial ablation is effective to ARVC VT though it may require repeated procedures.
