摘要：
A number of heart attack survivors later experience an electrical short circuit that leads to an erratic, rapid heartbeat and sudden death. Because a courageous banker allowed the author and his colleagues to attempt an untried operation in 1978, the lives of most susceptible patients can now be prolonged. The pathway of the aberrant impulses is identified and surgically interrupted.
