High-Power Short-Duration Ablation of Paroxysmal and Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
Catheter ablation has become a cornerstone in atrial fibrillation (AF) therapy, improving freedom from all-atrial arrhythmias, as well as outperforming antiarrhythmic drugs in alleviating AF-related symptoms, reducing hospitalizations, and enhancing ...

Ethanol Ablation for Odontogenic myxoma: New alternative of conservative treatment
Odontogenic myxoma is a maxillofacial tumor that is benign in nature. It is characterized by a slow-growing, painless, and site-aggressive behavior. A main feature is that it is not encapsulated so it has high potential of invasiveness and penetration ...

Liver Tumor Ablation Techniques
Despite advances in surgical technique, patients with primary and secondary liver tumors remain a difficult management problem, as most tumors are unresectable at presentation. Alternative therapies, involving the in situ destruction of liver tumors, have recently come under scrutiny as palliative options. Percutaneous ethanol injection and cryosurgery
