Impact of Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava on Outcomes With Atrial Fibrillation Ablation

Although the post-ablation freedom from AF is lower in patients with PLSVC than n-PLSVC, repeat ablation can result in a high freedom from AF in patients with PLSVC. Further study is necessary to determine the optimal methods and role for PLSVC ablation (including the role for pulse-field ablation).

Abstract

Although the post-ablation freedom from AF is lower in patients with PLSVC than n-PLSVC, repeat ablation can result in a high freedom from AF in patients with PLSVC. Further study is necessary to determine the optimal methods and role for PLSVC ablation (including the role for pulse-field ablation).
