Abstract:Aim. The study of interatrial septum (IAS) and coronary sinus (CS) syntopia in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), who subsequently underwent pulmonary vein isolation with a cryoballoon and the determination of anatomical landmarks for puncture of the IAS.Methods. The data of preoperative computed tomography of the heart of 25 consecutive patients with AF, who subsequently underwent pulmonary vein isolation with a cryoballoon, were analyzed. Angulations describing IAS orientation and CS direction were meas… Show more
