Postintervention Dyspnea after Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation: Think of a Phrenic Nerve Injury [PDF]
Case Reports in Cardiology, 2017 Phrenic nerve injury (PNI) is a rare complication of catheter ablation therapy, most commonly observed in cryoablation of the right side pulmonary veins.

Cryoablation to improve catheter stability and ablation success in the right atrioventricular groove
Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2021 Catheter instability can limit ablation success of arrhythmia substrates at the right atrioventricular groove. We describe cases where cryoablation improved catheter stability, enabling ablation success.

Catheter Ablation of Idiopathic Ventricular Arrhythmias Originating from the Para-Hisian area - QRS Morphology Change and Late Effect of the Ablation: Case Series [PDF]
Folia Medica, 2020 Introduction: Radiofrequency catheter ablation of idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias originating in the para-Hisian region could be challenging because of a potential risk of iatrogenic atrioventricular block.

Catheter ablation using radiofrequency energy [PDF]
Clinical Cardiology, 1990 AbstractRecently, transvenous catheter ablation using radiofrequency impulses has been applied in experimental animals as well as in humans. This review describes the biophysics, mechanisms, and tissue effects of radio‐frequency alternating current. Ablation of the AV‐junction has been performed in experimental studies as well as in a growing number of

Mitral valve perforation after left lateral accessory pathway ablation: a case report
Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2022 Background Radiofrequency catheter ablation is considered to be a relatively safe procedure. This is an unusual case report in which severe mitral regurgitation was occurred after left lateral accessory pathway radiofrequency catheter ablation.

Radiofrequency catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia [PDF]
Heart, 2000 Management of patients with ventricular tachycardia (VT) is often difficult. Drug treatment is often ineffective. Implantable defibrillators terminate episodes but do not prevent them. Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation offers potential arrhythmia control without the adverse effects of antiarrhythmic treatment.

Autonomic effects of radiofrequency catheter ablation [PDF]
Europace, 2000 Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation has become the treatment of choice for a variety of supraventricular tachycardias. Autonomic dysfunction may occur during application of RF current; these abnormalities resolve quickly when current delivery is terminated.

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2022 Background Atrial tachycardia (AT) can be treated by medical or electrical cardioversion but the recurrence rate is high. Three‐dimensional electro‐anatomical mapping, recently described in horses, might be used to map AT to identify a focal source or ...
