Incidence and predictors of AF recurrence during long-term follow-up of patients after PF ablation for atrial fibrillation
PV reconnections are frequent in patients presenting for repeat ablations, especially at the anterior PV aspect. A multiple procedure approach estimates arrhythmia-free survival in 86% of patients. Procedures with additional anterior lesions at the right pulmonary veins (RPVs) could be protective for recurrences.
