A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pattern suggestive of an embolic etiology has been described but, to date, there are no uniformly accepted criteria. Aim The purpose of the study is to describe MRI features of ischemic cerebral lesions occurring after transcatheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF). of the lesions (95% CI 0.9%–3.0%)

ResultsWe identified 11 significant intervention-requiring complications associated with LAAC with or without Ablation procedure. The pericardial effusion or tamponade likely resulted from damage to the atrial appendage during LAAC device insertion.

Mid cavity obstruction in HCM is associated with apical aneurysm, systemic embolism, and arrhythmias. Cases are on record, in which ablation of the fourth septal artery has been done to ameliorate the obstruction in mid cavity obstruction. The role of cath now a days is mostly for septal ablation.
