Comparing Safety and Efficacy of Irrigated Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation Versus Combined Cryoballoon and Catheter Ablation for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation.
Background: Catheter and cryoballoon ablation are established treatments for atrial fibrillation. Frequently, substrate modification of the left atrium is performed in patients with persistent AF or evidence of left atrial adverse remodeling. We compared one year outcomes of AF ablation with substrate modification utilizing radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFA) compared to a combination of cry...
متن کاملThoracoscopic lobectomy for pulmonary vein occlusion after radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation
BACKGROUND Radiofrequency catheter ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is well established but not drawback free. Pulmonary vein stenosis is one of the complications and usually treated with stenting with the disadvantages of high re-stenosis rate and anticoagulant dependence. CASE PRESENTATION Herein, we present the case of a 47 year-old lady, who suffered from fever and hemoptysis d...
متن کاملCatheter Ablation of the Pulmonary Veins as Treatment for Atrial Fibrillation - 05/12
Radiofrequency ablation using a percutaneous catheter-based approach is widely used to treat supraventricular arrhythmias. Atrial fibrillation frequently arises from an abnormal focus at or near the junction of the pulmonary veins and the left atrium, thus leading to the feasibility of more focused ablation techniques directed at these structures. Catheter-based ablation, using both radiofreque...
متن کاملSuccessful Management of Atrio-Esophageal Fistula after Cardiac Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation
An increase in cardiac radiofrequency catheter ablation for treating refractory atrial fibrillation has resulted in an increased prevalence of complications. Among numerous complications of radiofrequency catheter ablation, atrio-esophageal fistula, although rare, is known to have fatal results. We report a case of successful management of an atrio-esophageal fistula as a complication of cardia...
متن کاملElimination Of Triggers Without An Additional Substrate Modification Is Not Sufficient In Patients With Persistent Atrial Fibrillation.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a multifactorial disease with complex pathophysiology. Although restoring sinus rhythm delays the progression of atrial remodeling, non-pharmacologic intervention, such as radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA), should be done based on the background pathophysiology of the disease. While circumferential pulmonary vein isolation (CPVI) has been known to be the corner...
