Effect of Isthmus Anatomy and Ablation Catheter on Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of the Cavotricuspid Isthmus [PDF]

Circulation, 2004
Background— Cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) characteristics are rarely documented when comparing catheters in radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of atrial flutter (AFL). Our objectives were (1) to evaluate the impact of CTI morphology and length on ablation procedures and (2) to compare the efficacy of an 8 ...

Acute pericarditis following treatment of a metastatic liver tumor with radiofrequency ablation: a case report

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2018
Background Radiofrequency ablation is a common and minimally invasive procedure used to treat liver tumors. However, the potential threat of heat injury to adjacent structures if the hepatic lesion is near the diaphragm is often overlooked and ...

Biodegradable Acoustic Targeting for Ultrasound‐Supported Gene Therapy (BATUS) in Glioblastoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) remains one of the most challenging brain malignancies due to the restrictive nature of the blood–brain barrier (BBB), which severely limits effective drug and gene delivery. To overcome this, we introduce Biodegradable Acoustic Targeting for Ultrasound‐Supported Gene Therapy (BATUS), a modular platform that enables safe ...

Catheter Ablation for the Management of Atrial Fibrillation: An Update of the Literature

Life, 2023
Catheter ablation has been shown to be more effective at maintaining sinus rhythm and improving quality of life when compared to antiarrhythmic drugs. Radiofrequency and cryoablation are two effective methods.

Biportal Endoscopic Posterior Open‐Window Focal Debridement and Lavage for Sacroiliac Joint Tuberculosis

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Sacroiliac joint tuberculosis (SJT), although relatively uncommon, may lead to severe destruction and functional impairment of the sacroiliac joint. Surgical intervention is recommended for patients with significant joint destruction, mild cystic changes, or sacroiliac joint instability. Early bone fusion may be facilitated through drainage of

Intra-cardiac echocardiography guided catheter ablation of a right posterior accessory pathway in a patient with Ebstein׳s anomaly

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2014
We report a case of Ebstein׳s anomaly in which radiofrequency catheter ablation of an accessory pathway was successfully performed under intra-cardiac echocardiography. A 50-year-old woman was referred to our hospital for radiofrequency catheter ablation

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.
