Prospective evaluation of antral lesion size of the 31-mm size of a novel size-adjustable cryoballoon: Results of the BETTER-FIT study

Cryoablation with the 31-mm size of a novel size-adjustable cryoballoon results in a large antral lesion. In small atria there is the potential for leaving a small nonablated corridor on the roof when using the 31-mm balloon in both superior PVs, which may be proarrhythmogenic.

Cryoablation with the 31-mm size of a novel size-adjustable cryoballoon results in a large antral lesion. In small atria there is the potential for leaving a small nonablated corridor on the roof when using the 31-mm balloon in both superior PVs, which may be proarrhythmogenic.
