Abstract

The combined procedure of catheter ablation and percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion for patients with atrial fibrillation has been shown to be safe and feasible using radiofrequency energy or cryoballoon.

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