Left atrial remodeling and voltage-guided ablation outcome in obese patients with persistent atrial fibrillation

Left atrial remodeling and voltage-guided ablation outcome in obese patients with persistent atrial fibrillation

BackgroundObesity is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF). Data regarding left atrial (LA) remodeling in obese patients are scarce. Whether obesity favors AF recurrence after catheter ablation (CA) is still controversial. We assessed the distribution of epicardial atrial fat on computed tomogr...
