Electrical gaps in recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmias after Maze surgery: regional patterns and clinical significance [PDF]
The Maze procedure is a well-established technique for treating atrial fibrillation; however, atrial tachyarrhythmias can recur postoperatively. This study analyzed the mechanisms of recurrence in patients who underwent electrophysiological studies and ...
