Summary

Hybrid ablation, as an emerging strategy for atrial fibrillation (AF) in recent years, shows encouraging outcomes in many medical centers. A lot of cases demonstrated hybrid ablation has higher success rate than surgical ablation on patients with persistent AF, especially long-standing persistent AF (LSPAF). But it is still lack of high level evidence to prove it.

This study focus on patients with long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (LSPAF). In order to compare the efficacy and safety of hybrid ablation (two-stage) versus thoracoscopic surgical ablation, a randomized, controlled clinical trial will be performed in the population of LSPAF patients.
