description | FUNDING ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: Type of funding sources: Public grant(s) – National budget only. Main funding source(s): Ministry of Health and Welfare the Basic Science Research Program run by the National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF). BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a chronic progressive disease that recurs continuously even after successful AF catheter ablation (AFCA). OBJECTIVE: We explored the mechanism of this long-term recurrence by comparing the patient characteristics and redo-ablation findings. METHODS: Among 4,248 patients who underwent a de novo AFCA and protocol-based rhythm follow-up at single centers, we enrolled 1,417 patients (71.7% male, age 60.0 [52.0–67.0] years, 57.9% paroxysmal AF) who experienced clinical recurrences (CRs) of the disease, and divided them according to the period of recurrence: within one year (n=645), 1–2 years (n=339), 2–5 years (n=308), and after 5-years (CR>5yr, n=125). We also compared the redo-mapping and ablation outcomes in 198 patients. RESULTS: In patients with a CR>5yr, the proportion of paroxysmal AF was higher (p=0.031); however, the left atrial (LA) volume (computed tomography, p=0.003), LA voltage (p=0.003), frequency of early recurrence (p<0.001), and use of post-procedure anti-arrhythmic drugs (p<0.001) were lower. A CR>5yr was independently associated with the low LA volume (odds ratio [OR] 0.99 [0.99–1.00], p=0.019), low LA voltage (OR 0.62 [0.41–0.95], p=0.030), and lower early recurrence (OR 0.39 [0.23–0.64], p<0.001). Extra-pulmonary vein (PV) triggers (P for trend 0.003) during repeat procedures were significantly greater in patients with a CR>5yr, despite no difference in the de novo protocol. The rhythm outcome of repeat ablation procedures did not differ with the timing of the CR (log-rank p=0.330). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with a later CR showed a smaller LA volume, lower LA voltage, and higher extra-PV triggers during the repeat procedure, suggesting progression of AF.
