Durable LAA isolation combining pulsed field ablation and radiofrequency linear lesions in a patient with a therapy refractory left atrial appendage tachycardia.
Background: Treating atrial tachycardia (AT) originating from left atrial appendage (LAA) needs sometimes electrical isolation of LAA. We report a case of AT originating from LAA successfully treated with electrical isolation using the novel lattice-tip pulsed-field/radiofrequency ablation (PFA/RFA) catheter. A 55-year-old female patient with a history of three focal ablative attempts for a highly symptomatic AT originating from the LAA in different centers was admitted to our department for the recurrence of the clinical tachycardia. Electrical isolation of the LAA (LAAEI) was successfully performed with a lattice-tip PFA/RFA ablation catheter. Six weeks after the procedure, an invasive re-mapping study indicated a durable electrical LAA isolation; therefore, a 24-mm-sized LAA occlusion device (WATCHMAN FLX device, Boston Scientific, Plymouth, MN, USA) was implanted.
Discussion: In this case, we successfully treated an atrial tachycardia originating from LAA using the recently approved lattice-tip PFA/RFA ablation catheter. The combination between two energy sources during the same procedure could potentially improve lesions transmurality offering a new promising solution for the treatment of complex atrial tachycardias.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology is an international publication devoted to fostering research in and development of interventional techniques and therapies for the management of cardiac arrhythmias. It is designed primarily to present original research studies and scholarly scientific reviews of basic and applied science and clinical research in this field. The Journal will adopt a multidisciplinary approach to link physical, experimental, and clinical sciences as applied to the development of and practice in interventional electrophysiology. The Journal will examine techniques ranging from molecular, chemical and pharmacologic therapies to device and ablation technology. Accordingly, original research in clinical, epidemiologic and basic science arenas will be considered for publication. Applied engineering or physical science studies pertaining to interventional electrophysiology will be encouraged. The Journal is committed to providing comprehensive and detailed treatment of major interventional therapies and innovative techniques in a structured and clinically relevant manner. It is directed at clinical practitioners and investigators in the rapidly growing field of interventional electrophysiology. The editorial staff and board reflect this bias and include noted international experts in this area with a wealth of expertise in basic and clinical investigation. Peer review of all submissions, conflict of interest guidelines and periodic editorial board review of all Journal policies have been established.
