Using only 2 quadripolar catheters after a transseptal approach, the focus was successfully mapped to the posterior wall of the right superior pulmonary vein. The focus was successfully ablated during the same procedure using a 4-mm tip-irrigated catheter. | | Language | eng | | Pub Type(s) | Journal Article
