Abstract
A 40-year-old woman with symptomatic advanced atrioventricular (AV) block underwent cardioneuroablation (CNA) for the treatment of functional bradyarrhythmia, following the exclusion of reversible causes and intrinsic disease of the conduction system. Selective ablation of ganglia related to the AV node, performed exclusively in the left atrium, restored AV conduction, which has remained unchanged with 2 years of follow-up. CNA is a viable and effective option with low risk for the treatment of functional bradyarrhythmias, regardless of their severity.
期刊介绍:
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology (PACE) is the foremost peer-reviewed journal in the field of pacing and implantable cardioversion defibrillation, publishing over 50% of all English language articles in its field, featuring original, review, and didactic papers, and case reports related to daily practice. Articles also include editorials, book reviews, Musings on humane topics relevant to medical practice, electrophysiology (EP) rounds, device rounds, and information concerning the quality of devices used in the practice of the specialty.
