pubmed-article:12690481 | pubmed:abstractText | The incidence of atrial fibrillation is similar in the clinical history of patients with atrial septal defect, either surgically corrected and uncorrected. We present an unpublished technique for treating atrial fibrillation by left endocardial radiofrequency ablation through the lone right atrium incision, coupled to atrial septal defect septum primum and secundum closure, thus reducing the surgical trauma related to paraseptal left atrium incision. | lld:pubmed |
