radiofrequency atrial fibrillation ablation technique in patients with mitral valve surgery and left atrial reduction procedures
background: about half of all patients who undergo mitral valve surgery suffer from atrial fibrillation (af). cox described the surgical cut-and-sew maze procedure, which is an effective surgical method but has some complications. this study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of a substitution method of radiofrequency ablation (rfa) for patients undergoing mitral valve surgery with af. metho...
متن کاملAcute effects of left atrial radiofrequency ablation on atrial fibrillation.
INTRODUCTION Acutely, when left atrial ablation is performed during atrial fibrillation (AF), the AF may persist and require cardioversion, or it may convert to sinus rhythm or to atrial tachycardia/flutter. The prevalence of these acute outcomes has not been described. METHODS AND RESULTS Left atrial ablation, usually including encirclement of the pulmonary veins, was performed during AF in ...
متن کاملsurgical radiofrequency maze iii ablation for treatment of atrial fibrillation during open heart surgery
background: atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia in patients with rheumatic mitral and other valve diseases who are candidates for valve repair surgeries. conversion of rhythm to sinus has positive effects on quality of life and lower use of medications. the aim of this clinical study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the radiofrequency ablation maze iii procedure in the treatment of a...
متن کاملMidterm results of left atrial bipolar radiofrequency ablation combined with a mitral valve procedure in persistent atrial fibrillation
INTRODUCTION The aim of the study was to assess the midterm results of left atrial bipolar radiofrequency ablation combined with a mitral valve procedure in patients with mitral valve disease and persistent atrial fibrillation. METHODS Between October 2006 and July 2009, 95 patients with mitral valve disease and persistent atrial fibrillation underwent a mitral valve procedure and left atrial...
متن کاملRadiofrequency ablation of left atrial appendage accessory pathway.
A 47-year-old man was referred to our hospital due to recurrent episodes of narrow QRS complex tachycardia. Baseline electrocardiogram showed ventricular pre-excitation in favour of left-sided accessory pathway (AP), so we decided to perform radiofrequency (RF) mapping and ablation of AP. During the ventricular pacing and orthodromic atrioventricular reciprocating tachycardia, the earliest atri...
