The tango trial showed that a six-week tango Argentino program was effective in reducing fatigue and improving quality of life, and here we investigated the sustainability of this tango program for breast cancer survivors.
Methods: Stage I-III breast cancer survivors with increased fatigue symptoms were analyzed.
Introduction: Esophageal injury is one of the most serious complications of pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) with thermic energy sources. Better tissue selectivity of primarily non-thermic pulsed field ablation (PFA) may eliminate collateral injury, particularly the risk of atrio-esophageal fistula (AEF).
Objective: To compare the incidence of any (peri)-esophageal injury following PVI using PFA to thermic energy sources.
