Abstract Aims Data on the hybrid atrial fibrillation (AF) treatment are lacking in patients with structural heart disease undergoing concomitant CryoMaze procedures. The aim was to assess whether timely pre-emptive catheter ablation would achieve higher freedom from AF or tachycardia (AT) and be associated better clinical outcomes than surgical alone. Methods results trial investigated non-paroxysmal coronary artery bypass grafting and/or valve repair/replacement mandatory procedure who were...
Atrial fibrillation is common in patients with structural heart disease who are undergoing cardiac surgery. Surgical CryoMaze has been shown to be an effective treatment several trials, but success rates have varied considerably, between 47-95%. The sequential hybrid approach, combining surgical followed by radiofrequency catheter ablation, can achieve high freedom from atrial arrhythmias. However, concomitant treatment, data comparing the approach alone lacking.The SurHyb study was designed...
Abstract Objectives Current recommendations support surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients indicated for cardiac surgery. These procedures are referred to as concomitant and may be carried out using radiofrequency energy or cryo-ablation. This study aimed assess the electrophysiological findings undergoing Methods Patients with non-paroxysmal AF coronary artery bypass grafting and/or valve repair/replacement were included trial if cryo-ablation was part plan according...

Úvod: Minimálně invazivní chirurgické ablace se stávají zajímavou možností, jak léčit pacienty s izolovanou fibrilací síní (FS). Obecně jsou však tyto spojovány vyšší četností perioperačních komplikací. Cílem této studie bylo shrnout výskyt komplikací u všech takových procedur provedených v našem centru a porovnat jej údaji z relevantních publikací poslední doby.Materiál metody: Shromážděny analyzovány byly veškeré údaje o 30denních komplikacích thorakoskopických ablací FS centru. V recentní...
Comparative data regarding the effect of percutaneous and thoracoscopic ablation atrial fibrillation (AF) on cognitive function are very limited. The aim study was to determine compare both types ablations patient functions in mid-term.Patients with AF indicated for procedure were included. Forty-six patients underwent thoracoscopic, off-pump using COBRA Fusion radiofrequency system, followed by a catheter three months afterward (Hybrid group). A comparative cohort 53 pulmonary vein...
Abstract Background Treatment strategies for patients with non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) still do not provide satisfactory results. In pursuit of better results, other approaches, such as the hybrid ablation (i.e., thoracoscopic epicardial followed by catheter ablation), have been used. The accurate data regarding efficacy and safety procedure are limited. Purpose To determine procedural safety, mid-term ablation. Methods Patients AF were included. They underwent thoracoscopic,...
