Abstract

Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation presents suboptimal results in patients (pts) with persistent long-lasting forms (LSPAF, AF ≥12 months). Recently, the STAR AF-II trial has shown that in these pts complex additional strategies do not improve success compared to only performing pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). Objectives To evaluate the success of AF ablation, particularly in long-standing persistent AF Methods Single-center...
