Although epicardial bipolar radiofrequency ablation should diminish the risk of esophageal thermal injury in comparison to an endocardial ablation, cases of lethal atrio-esophageal fistula have been reported. To better understand this risk and to red

Purpose The development of an atrio-esophageal fistula, a rare yet potentially lethal complication of ablation for atrial fibrillation, could be related to direct tissue heat transfer during and immediately after the ablation. We therefore studied th

BACKGROUND Atrioesophageal fistula (AEF) is a worrisome complication of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. Its clinical manifestations and time course are unpredictable and may contribute to diagnostic and treatment delays. We conducted a systematic

Purpose Thermal damage to the esophagus is a risk from radiofrequency (RF) ablation of the left atrium for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). The most extreme type of thermal injury results in atrio-esophageal fistula (AEF) and a correspondin

IntroductionRadiofrequency catheter ablation is a common treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF), during which thermal esophageal injury may rarely occur and lead to an atrio-esophageal fistula. Therefore, we studied the utility of the Circa S-Cath™
