Effects of additional ablation of low‐voltage areas after Box isolation for persistent atrial fibrillation

Effects of additional ablation of low‐voltage areas after Box isolation for persistent atrial fibrillation

Abstract Background Previous studies reported that ablation of low‐voltage areas (LVAs) after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) improves the success rate in persistent atrial fibrillation (PerAF) patients with LVAs. However, the need for LVA ablation in addition to the posterior left atrial isolation,...
