Abstract:BackgroundHypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is frequently associated with atrial fibrillation (AF). We compared clinical, echocardiographic, and electrophysiological parameters between HCM subtypes and those without HCM at AF catheter ablation (AFCA) and analyzed post‐AFCA reverse remodeling and AF recurrence based on HCM presence and subtype.MethodsAmong 5161 consecutive patients who underwent de novo AFCA, we included HCM patients and control patients who were age‐, gender‐, and AF type‐matched. Between AF‐H… Show more
