Abstract Aims Oesophageal fistula represents a rare but dreadful complication of atrial fibrillation catheter ablation. Data on its incidence, management, and outcome are sparse. Methods results This international multicentre registry investigates the characteristics oesophageal fistulae after treatment by A total 553 729 ablation procedures (radiofrequency: 62.9%, cryoballoon: 36.2%, other modalities: 0.9%) were performed, at 214 centres in 35 countries. In 78 138 patients [0.025%,...
Background: Cryoballoon-based pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has emerged as an effective treatment for atrial fibrillation. The most frequent complication during cryoballoon-based PVI is phrenic nerve injury (PNI). However, data on PNI are scarce. Methods: YETI registry a retrospective, multicenter, and multinational evaluating the incidence, characteristics, prognostic factors recovery follow-up of patients with PVI. Experienced electrophysiological centers were invited to participate. All...
Left atrial appendage (LAA) closure devices have been introduced recently as an alternative for oral anticoagulation (OAC) in patients with nonvalvular fibrillation (AF). Because of potential overlap ablation target areas and the previously implanted LAA device, well complications such mechanical damage to left (LA) remains a subject debate these patients.We report on feasibility clinical efficacy LA after implantation devices.Eight (6 men; age 69 ± 8 years) symptomatic paroxysmal AF (n = 5)...
Abstract Aims Cryoballoon (CB)-based pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is an effective treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF). The most frequent complication during CB-based PVI right-sided phrenic nerve injury (PNI) which leading to premature abortion of the freeze cycle. Here, we analysed reconnection rates after and PNI in a large-scale population repeat procedures. Methods results In YETI registry, total 17 356 patients underwent 33 centres, 731 (4.2%) experienced PNI. A 111/731 (15.2%)...
Abstract Background The use of single-chamber, right ventricular (RV) leadless pacemakers (LPs) has been well established, the introduction a atrial LPs opened door for dual-chamber pacing. Cardiac computed tomography (CT) segmentation integration might provide proper visual guide during procedure. Case summary A 58-year-old male patient was brought to emergency department with dizziness and complete heart block. underwent single-chamber permanent LP implantation. During upgrade LP, 3D CT...
