Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 980-988, May 2026.ABSTRACT Background The left atrial posterior wall (LAPW) is often targeted in atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation due to its shared properties with pulmonary veins. However, substrate‐guided approaches using structural markers have shown inconsistent results.

Korean Circulation JournalCryoballoon ablation (CBA) is considered an effective rhythm control treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF) and is increasing exponentially. However, data regarding the efficacy and safety of CBA in elderly patients are limited.A total of 2,652 patients (55.2% with non-paroxysmal AF) from the Korean CBA registry database with follow-up of ≥12-months ...

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 618-625, May 2026.ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) using thermal energy—radiofrequency (RF) or cryoablation (CRYO)—is associated with direct myocardial injury and collateral neural damage. In contrast, pulsed electric field (PEF) energy has emerged as a neural‐sparing alternative.

Cryoballoon Ablation for Patients With Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
Circulation Reports, 2020 Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice and induces cardiac dysfunction and stroke. The development of AF requires a trigger and also an electroanatomic substrate capable of both initiating and perpetuating AF.

International Journal of the Cardiovascular Academy, 2019 Background and Aim: Catheter-based atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation primarily for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has become a significant therapeutic alternative for symptomatic and drug-refractory AF patients. It is evident that AF time and left atrium
