Abstract excerpt
Catheter ablation has become the standard of care for the management of antiarrhythmic drug-refractory atrial fibrillation (AF) in many patients. The cornerstone of AF ablation includes pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and energy delivery can sometimes extend beyond the atrial myocardium and result in collateral damage to adjacent structures, include the esophagus.[1] While atrial esophageal fistula (AEF) is a gener...
