Left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is a rare primary cardiomyopathy with genetic etiology, resulting from an abnormality of myocardial development during embryogenesis. It carries an elevated risk of left ventricular dysfunction, thromboembolic events and malignant arrhythmias. We report the case of LVNC associated with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and ankyrin 2 () mutation at the genetic test.

- * Managing AF effectively involves a multidisciplinary team (MDT), working closely with cardiologists and other healthcare providers to create a tailored care plan that addresses the complex nature of the disorder.
- * Ongoing evaluation and adjustment of treatment are essential, as new risk factors, symptoms, and advancements in therapies can change the approach to AF management over time.
Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is the established cornerstone for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, indeed current guidelines recognize PVI as the gold standard for first-time AF ablation, regardless of if it is paroxysmal or persistent. Since 1998 when Haïssaguerre pioneered AF ablation demonstrating a burden reduction after segmental pulmonary vein (PV) ablation, our approach to PVI was superior in terms of methodology and technology. This review aims to describe how paroxysmal atrial fibrillation ablation has evolved over the last twenty years.
