Abstract: | Introduction The incidence of pulmonary vein reconnection and recurrent atrial fibrillation after a single catheter ablation procedure is unacceptably high. We studied the ability of a novel endoscopic laser balloon ablation system (EAS) to achieve acute and chronic pulmonary vein (PV) isolation in a swine model. |
