You can do both in one trip. It is up to you. I did both in one trip and scheduled it that way on purpose.

I already had an ICD before the myectomy so that didn't change anything. The surgery shouldn't require you to have one unless you already had an alcohol ablation. The only reason for an ICD would be if you have enough risk factors which make you at risk for sudden death.
