Article Synopsis
  • Catheter ablation for parahisian accessory pathways (PHAP) is challenging due to their close proximity to the heart's normal conduction system, with cryoablation showing a better safety profile but higher recurrence rates than radiofrequency ablation (RFCA).
  • This study involved 30 patients and compared the effectiveness of RFCA and cryoablation, finding similar acute success rates (93% for RFCA vs. 87% for CRYO) and no significant differences in short-term or long-term recurrence rates.
  • The researchers concluded that both RFCA and CRYO have comparable efficacy and safety profiles when performed by experienced electrophysiologists, with no cases of permanent AV block reported in either method.

Background: The anatomical approach for the management of para-Hisian ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) with QRS morphological changes after catheter ablation (CA) has not been well investigated.

Objective: We aimed to evaluate the electrocardiographic and electrophysiological findings and ablation outcomes of para-Hisian VAs with QRS morphological changes after CA.

Methods: Of the 30 patients who underwent CA for para-Hisian VAs at 4 institutions, 10 (33%) had QRS morphological changes after ablation.

Background: Although cryoablation (CA) of septally located accessory pathways (APs) is an established treatment for Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome, its major limitation is the lack of data regarding long-term follow-up (FU). The present study sought to investigate long-term outcomes of a specific CA protocol targeting para-Hisian (P-H) and mid-septal (M-S) APs.

Methods: Twenty-six patients who previously underwent CA of PH or MS APs from 2004 to 2014, were prospectively considered to receive a FU during 2021.

A 58-year-old female patient presented at cardiology outpatient clinic with palpitation. The 12-lead electrocardiography on admission revealed monomorphic bigeminy premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) showed a left bundle-branch block configuration, monophasic R wave in lead I and aVL and precordial transition in V3 lead. Cardiac electrophysiological study was performed to patient.

A 54-year-old woman with symptomatic premature ventricular contractions (PVC) was referred for electrophysiological study. The earliest activation was located at the parahisian area, so it was decided to ablate using cryoenergy. No AV conduction impairment was observed during cryomapping.
