Pulmonary Vein Isolation Using a Circular Multielectrode Pulsed Field Ablation Catheter via a Jugular Vein Approach. [PDF]

J Arrhythm
PVI by catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation via a superior approach is technically challenging. However, the circular multielectrode PFA catheter is feasible for PVI via a superior jugular vein approach. AP, anteroposterior; LAO, left anterior oblique; PA, posteroanterior; PFA, pulsed field ablation; PVI, pulmonary vein isolation.

Successful Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy With Defibrillator Implantation in a Patient With Isolated Dextrocardia and Situs Inversus Totalis: Role of High-Resolution Three-Dimensional Computed Tomography in Procedural Planning. [PDF]

J Arrhythm
Preprocedural 3D‐CT identified a suitable posterolateral coronary vein in a patient with dextrocardia and situs inversus. Right‐sided CRT‐D implantation guided by 3D imaging achieved optimal lead positioning and biventricular pacing, underscoring the importance of preprocedural anatomical planning in complex congenital settings.
