Abstract Introduction Real-world studies comparing safety and efficacy of combined percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) and catheter ablation (CA) to LAAO alone are limited. vs. 4.5%, p =0.96) on transesophageal echocardiogram did not differ. Both major (1.4% vs. 2.1%, p =0.72) and minor (27.8%
Abstract Introduction Cavo-tricuspid isthmus (CTI) dependent atrial flutter (AFL) is one of the most common atrial arrhythmias involving the right atrium (RA) for which radiofrequency catheter ablation has been widely used as a therapy of choice. Follow-up echocardiographic data was available for 55 patients. to 19.10 ± 7.7,
Angina is another common symptom due the hypertrophy which causes a coronary supply demand mismatch Symptoms of HCM include syncope/near syncope, which could be precipitated by exertion, hypovolemia, rapid standing, Valsalva manoeuvre, diuretics, vasodilators or arrhythmia. Palpitations can be felt if there are arrhythmias.
She had an echocardiogram which was normal. Even experienced providers make the mistake of using the term, “SVT” as a specific diagnosis — when in fact this generic term includes all arrhythmias in which the rate is “tachycardic” ( ie, ≥100 in an adult ). There is no need to immediately refer today’s patient to EP for ablation.
The patient was found to have a "concealed" posteroseptal pathway (WPW without delta waves) confirmed to have SVT at EP study and was ablated. Here is the Electrophysilogist's note: "Only 1 pathway attachment could be ablated, the second one deep within the CS could not be ablated with high power. The echo was normal.
An international consensus statement on how to treat atrial fibrillation with catheter or surgical ablation has been published in EP Europace, a journal of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), and was recently presented at EHRA 2024, a scientific congress held April 7-9 in Berlin, Germany.

The possibility of an ischemic cause of the ventricular arrhythmia has to be considered! A workup was undertaken in search of a cause of the patient's ventricular arrhythmia. Once the arrhythmia was under control cardiac MRi was performed. The patient has been scheduled for a PVC ablation procedure. No PVCs are seen.
