Centro Hospitalar Vila Nova de Gaia/Espinho, Cardiology Department, V. N. Gaia, Portugal.
Introduction And Objectives: Cardioneuroablation (CNA), a technique based on radiofrequency ablation of cardiac vagal ganglia, was developed to treat recurrent vasovagal syncope (VVS) with a predominant cardioinhibitory component, as an alternative to pacemaker implantation. The aim of our study was to evaluate the safety and success rate of CNA guided by extracardiac vagal stimulation in patients with highly symptomatic cardioinhibitory VVS.
Methods: Prospective study of patients who underwent anatomically guided CNA at two cardiology centers.
Catheter ablation of severe neurally meditated reflex (neurocardiogenic or vasovagal) syncope: cardioneuroablation long-term results.

Sao Paulo Heart Hospital-HCor, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Aims: Neurally meditated reflex or neurocardiogenic or vasovagal syncope (NMS) is usually mediated by a massive vagal reflex. This study reports the long-term outcome of NMS therapy based on endocardial radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation of the cardiac vagal nervous system aiming permanent attenuation or elimination of the cardioinhibitory reflex (cardioneuroablation).
Methods And Results: A total of 43 patients (18F/25M, 32.
