Purpose: Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) through catheter ablation is the basis for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). The left common ostium (LCO) is a high prevalence anatomical variation and has conflicting results in the effects on the prognosis following ablation. We undertook a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies that compared the arrhythmia recurrence rate after radiofrequency ablation or cryoablation balloon between patients with normal pattern pulmonary vein and patients with LCO...

BACKGROUND: The influence of pulmonary vein (PV) anatomy on cryo kinetics during cryoballoon (CB) ablation is unclear. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between PV anatomy and cryo kinetics during CB ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF). METHODS: Sixty consecutive patients were enrolled. PV anatomy, including ostial diameters (long, short and corrected), ratio between short and long diameters, ostium shape (round, oval, triangular, and narrow), and drainage pattern (typical, with common trunk, common antrum, ostial branch and supernumerary PV) were evaluated on multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) images pre-procedure...

Atrial septal defect is one of the most common congenital heart anomalies in adults. Patients with partial atrioventricular canal defects, previously known as ostium primum atrial septal defect, usually present at an early age, and only a few reach adulthood without surgical correction. Herein, we describe a young woman who presented with an ostium primum defect and severe symptomatic mitral and tricuspid regurgitation with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. A complex repair was successfully done through a left atrial approach using robot-assistance...

BACKGROUND: We have observed contour changes of the barium-filled esophagus during atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation with cryo-energy delivered in direct proximity to the esophagus. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the frequency, location, and severity of esophageal contour changes during cryo-energy application close to the esophagus. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed cine-fluoroscopic images acquired during hybrid cryo-radiofrequency AF ablation in 100 consecutive patients with cryo-energy delivered only in direct proximity to the esophagus...

Search Tips

Use Boolean operators: AND/OR

diabetic AND foot
diabetes OR diabetic

Exclude a word using the 'minus' sign

Virchow -triad

Use Parentheses

water AND (cup OR glass)

Add an asterisk (*) at end of a word to include word stems

Neuro* will search for Neurology, Neuroscientist, Neurological, and so on

Use quotes to search for an exact phrase

"primary prevention of cancer"
(heart or cardiac or cardio*) AND arrest -"American Heart Association"
