ABSTRACT Background Cryoballoon ablation (CB) is a well‐established thermal technique for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI), while balloon‐in‐basket pulsed field ablation (BiB‐PFA) represents a novel non‐thermal alternative. Both single‐shot systems may trigger systemic inflammation and myocardial injury, yet direct comparisons are lacking.
