Esophageal Injury Risk Factors in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Catheter Ablation
Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.Low BMI and reduced LVEF were independently associated with esophageal injury following catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation. All lesions were located near the left pulmonary vein and showed complete healing on follow‐up endoscopy. ABSTRACT Background and Aims Esophageal injury (EI) is a potentially serious complication of catheter ablation (CA ...

Safety and Efficacy of Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation in Elderly Patients
Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.Pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) was evaluated in 479 patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), 52% paroxysmal. Among 104 patients > 75 years, complication rates and 6‐ and 12‐month arrhythmia‐free survival were not significantly different from younger patients. Age did not predict recurrence. PFA appears safe and effective in elderly AF patients.
