Abstract
Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is used for rhythm control in atrial fibrillation (AF). Posterior wall isolation (PWI) is often an adjunct to PVI. Successful PWI is limited by esophageal location, epicardial bridging signals, tissue thickness, and mapping catheter resolution. High-density grid mapping catheters can assist with PWI. Here, we report a case of a 71-year-old woman with persistent AF who underwent PVI and PWI with high-density grid mapping catheters, thus demonstrating the use of omnipolar technology in facilitating successful PWI.
