Pulsed Field Ablation for Persistent Superior Vena Cava: New Solution for an Old Problem

Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is a known arrhythmogenesis site in patients with atrial fibrillation. However, the optimal PLSVC isolation approach has remained unclear because of the potential risk of complications. The current study reports 2 cases of successful electrical PLSVC isolat...

description Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is a known arrhythmogenesis site in patients with atrial fibrillation. However, the optimal PLSVC isolation approach has remained unclear because of the potential risk of complications. The current study reports 2 cases of successful electrical PLSVC isolation using pulsed field ablation. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.)
