Dronedarone after Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation: A New Option in Hybrid Therapy

Felix Gramley, Felix Vogt, Mohammed Natour, Eva Koellensperger & Klaus Kettering · Cardiology and Angiology: An International Journal · 2017

Background and Aim: Catheter ablation has become the therapy of choice in patients with symptomatic, recurrent, drug-refractory atrial fibrillation (AF). However, frequent AF recurrences often necessitate an adjunctive antiarrhythmic drug (AAD) therapy. Dronedarone is a new class...

Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation: Three-dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiography Provides an Excellent Overview over the Pulmonary Vein Anatomy Facilitating Radiofrequency and Cryoablation Procedures

Klaus Kettering, Felix Gramley & Stephan von Bardeleben · Cardiology and Angiology: An International Journal · 2017

Background: Catheter of atrial fibrillation is still challenging because of the high degree of variability of the pulmonary vein anatomy. Therefore, 3D imaging systems are frequently used prior to an ablation procedure. Three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography provides...
