N1 - Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (PVT) post coronary artery bypass (CABG) surgery is associated with acute myocardial ischemia, hemodynamic instability, and metabolic derangements. When acute ischemia is suspected, a comprehensive investigation for reversible causes is justified to improve patient outcomes. We present a curious case of incessant, refractory PVT in a patient with an unknown etiology requiring percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) post CABG.
