Cryoballoon Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: From the Korean Cryoballoon Ablation Registry. [PDF]
Atrial fibrillation (AF) occurs in more than 20% of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients, further increasing the risk of stroke. Although radiofrequency catheter ablation in AF patients with HCM has been performed, data on cryoballoon ablation (CBA) in HCM patients are limited.

Efficacy and safety of cryoballoon ablation versus radiofrequency catheter ablation in atrial fibrillation: an updated meta-analysis [PDF]
Introduction: Cryoballoon ablation (CBA) and irrigated radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) are the main treatments for drug-refractory symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF).

ASSESSMENT OF CARDIAC AUTONOMIC DYSFUNCTION AFTER PULMONARY VEIN ISOLATION AND ITS IMPACT ON SUCCESS OF PAROXYSMAL ATRIAL FIBRILLATION ABLATION. [PDF]
Background: Atrial-fibrillation is the most prevalent cardiac arrhythmia and a significant public health issue. Recently,radiofrequency current ablation and cryoballoon ablation are frequently used for rhythm control in symptomatic paroxysmal AF patients

Long-term course of phrenic nerve injury after cryoballoon ablation of atrial fibrillation
While phrenic nerve palsy (PNP) due to cryoballoon pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) of atrial fibrillation (AF) was transient in most cases, no studies have reported the results of the long-term follow-up of PNP.

Haemoptysis and pulmonary haemorrhage associated with cryoballoon ablation: [PDF]
A 55-year-old male patient was referred to our hospital for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) by cryoballoon of drug-resistant paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Pulmonary vein isolation was performed with a 28 mm cryoballoon. The patient was anti-coagulated with iv heparin and the activated clotting time was …
