Ablation Techniques in a Patient with a Right Accessory Pulmonary Vein. Is it Always Feasible?
A 32-year-old woman with lone paroxysmal atrial fibrillation had two pulmomary vein isolation procedures over 1 year, by means of the circular multipolar duty-cycled radiofrequency PVAC catheter in the first and the Thermocool® SmartTouchTM catheter in the second procedure. Following both procedures...
