Presence of non-pulmonary vein foci in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing standard ablation of pulmonary vein isolation: Clinical characteristics and long-term ablation outcome

Presence of non-pulmonary vein foci in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing standard ablation of pulmonary vein isolation: Clinical characteristics and long-term ablation outcome

Background: The clinical characteristics of atrial fibrillation (AF) resulting from non-pulmonary vein (PV) triggers remain unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics of patients with AF caused by non-PV triggers, localization of non-PV foci, clinical differences, and clinica...
