Catheter cryoablation of cardiac arrhythmias.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of the review is to provide an update on the safety and efficacy of catheter cryoablation. RECENT FINDINGS Catheter cryoablation is a safe and clinically effective method for ablation of atrioventricular nodal reentrant supraventricular tachycardia. Although the acute procedural success rate of catheter cryoablation for this arrhythmia may be slightly lower than ...
متن کاملCatheter cryoablation: biology and clinical uses.
C ryotherapy, or the use of freezing temperatures to elicit a specific tissue response, has a long history of safe and effective use in medicine. Cryothermal ablation results in discrete homogenous lesions that are sharply demarcated, with preserved ultrastructural tissue integrity and low propensity for thrombosis. Its unique safety profile is well established. Although cryoenergy has been use...
متن کاملCatheter-based cryoablation permanently cures patients with common atrial flutter.
BACKGROUND Cryoablation (cryo) has a high success rate in the short-term treatment of atrial flutter (AFL), but evidence of long-term efficacy is lacking. The present study reports the long-term effect of cryo of the cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) in patients with common AFL. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirty-five consecutive patients (28 men; mean age, 53 years) underwent cryo of the CTI. In 34 patien...
متن کاملCatheter cryoablation of atrio-ventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia. A clinical review.
Cryoablation is a new method in interventional cardiac electrophysiology for percutaneous catheter ablation of cardiac arrhythmias. Cryothermal mapping enables the functional assessment of a particular site before permanent ablation. In this way, the targeted tissue may be confirmed as safe for ablation. This is useful in high risk ablation, for example, nex to the His bundle or the compact AV ...
متن کاملCryoablation with an 8-mm-Tip Catheter for Right-Sided Accessory Pathways in Children.
BACKGROUND Cryoablation is increasingly utilized in children because of its safety profile. Recently, larger catheter tips have been more widely used to improve long-term success rates. The aim of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of 8-mm-tip catheters for cryoablation of right-sided accessory pathways (APs) in children. METHODS Electrophysiological procedures were performed us...
