Summary

The aim of the present study is to assess whether left atrial roof ablation adds any benefit in the arrhythmia-free probability after paroxysmal atrial fibrillation ablation.

Conditions

  • Drug-refractory Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Pulmonary vein encircling

Pulmonary vein encircling by performing continuous radiofrequency lesions surrounding each ipsilateral pulmonary vein antrum

PROCEDURE

Pulmonary vein encircling plus roof ablation

Pulmonary vein encircling by performing continuous radiofrequency lesions surrounding each ipsilateral pulmonary vein antrum plus creation of a radiofrequency line joining contralateral superior pulmonary veins throughout the left atrial roof.
