| Popis: |
We report an interesting case in which atrial fibrillation (AF) was terminated during ablation of high-dominant frequency (DF) sites covered with epicardial adipose tissue (EAT). High-DF sites are known to be related to the center of focal-firing rotors or local reentry circuits. Therefore, this phenomenon suggests that EAT may be related to the development of dominant rotors maintaining AF. |
