Pulsed-field ablation of pulmonary vein and left atrial posterior wall combined with left atrial appendage occlusion as single procedure

Abstract

Pulmonary vein isolation and left atrial posterior wall ablation using the Farapulse system, followed by left atrial appendage occlusion, have been achieved as single combined procedure to treat long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation in a patient at high hemorrhagic risk.

Keywords: atrial fibrillation; left atrial appendage occlusion; pulsed field ablation.
