AI Article Synopsis
- Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and Barrett's esophagus (BE) rarely occur together, even though both are linked to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
- * Radiofrequency ablation is a successful treatment for dysplastic BE, but its effects on patients with both EoE and BE are not well understood.
- * A case study showed that after treating a patient with dysplastic BE, there was a rapid increase in eosinophils in the newly formed squamous mucosa, highlighting potential complications.
Article Abstract
The coexistence of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and Barrett's esophagus (BE) is rare despite the known association of gastroesophageal reflux disease with both conditions. Radiofrequency ablation is an effective endoscopic eradication therapy in patients with dysplastic BE. However, the efficacy and outcomes of radiofrequency ablation in patients with concomitant EoE and BE are not well known. We report a case of rapid eosinophilic infiltration of the neosquamous mucosa after the complete eradication of long-segment dysplastic BE in a patient with coexisting BE and EoE.

Takotsubo Syndrome Following Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Metasummary of Case Reports/Series.
Cardiol Rev
December 2024
Department of Hospital Medicine, Cheshire Medical Center/Dartmouth Health Keene, NH.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) catheter ablation is safe and effective, though rare cases of takotsubo syndrome (TTS) have been observed without proven causation. This review synthesizes TTS following AF ablation case reports and series. Until October 2024, PubMed/Medline, SCOPUS, and Google Scholar were searched for AF ablation and TTS case reports and series.

The efficacy of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has been established, but the efficacy and safety of cryoballoon ablation (CBA) and pulsed field ablation (PFA) remain unclear. This retrospective cohort study included 223 patients with paroxysmal non-valvular AF and HFpEF who underwent their first AF ablation between January 2017 and December 2021 and were divided into RFA (n = 77), CBA (n = 127), and PFA (n = 19) groups. After a mean follow-up of 11.

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive treatment modality used as an alternative to surgery in patients with benign thyroid nodules, recurrent thyroid cancers (RTCs), and primary thyroid microcarcinomas. The Korean Society of Thyroid Radiology (KSThR) initially developed recommendations for the optimal use of RFA for thyroid tumors in 2009 and revised them in 2012 and 2017. As new meaningful evidence has accumulated since 2017 and in response to a growing global interest in the use of RFA for treating malignant thyroid lesions, the task force committee members of the KSThR decided to update the guidelines on the use of RFA for the management of RTCs based on a comprehensive analysis of current literature and expert consensus.

Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, Faculty of Medical Sciences, University of Fukui.
Catheter ablation is a widely used treatment modality for various cardiac tachyarrhythmias, including atrial and ventricular arrhythmias. Although it is generally considered safe, the procedure carries potential complications, with coronary artery injury being one of the most significant. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the incidence, mechanisms, contributing factors, diagnostic strategies, and preventive measures related to coronary artery injury in patients undergoing catheter ablation, including radiofrequency catheter ablation, cryoablation, and pulsed-field ablation.
