NEW APPROACH FOR TREATMENT OF ATRIAL FIBRILLATION: CATHETER ABLATION OF GANGLIONIC PLEXUSES IN THE LEFT ATRIUM

Abstract

То develop the technique o f radiofrequency catheter ablation o f autonomic ganglia in the left atrium and to assess its effectiveness for treatment o f atrial fibrillation, fifty-eight patients aged 41-67 years (mean age 52.1±1.9 years) were examined and operated on.
