Reduction in left atrial and pulmonary vein dimensions after ablation therapy is mediated by scar

Reduction in left atrial and pulmonary vein dimensions after ablation therapy is mediated by scar

Background: Ablative pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) decreases pulmonary vein (PV) and left atrial (LA) dimensions in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. These changes are attributed to reverse structural remodeling following sinus rhythm restoration but evidence is lacking. We hypothesized that the d...
