Brief Summary: The present standard of care for the management of unstable ventricular tachycardia VT in the setting of chronic coronary artery disease is the placement of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator ICD after the initial episode and radiofrequency ablation andor antiarrhythmic medication in the event of recurrences causing frequent ICD interventions

The primary purpose of this randomized study is the assessment of recurrences of unstable VT in patients who undergo ICD implantation plus substrate ablation after the initial episode compared to patients who only undergo ICD implantation Thus the primary purpose is an improvement in the quality of life A decrease in mortality is not a primary purpose of this study
