pubmed:abstractText |
According to present knowledge, pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) bears a low interventional risk and has a high feasibility. For completion of PVI, left atrial access is achieved via single or double transseptal puncture. We sought to determine the incidence and echocardiographic characteristics of persistent iatrogenic atrial septal defect (iASD) after PVI. Further objectives were to define clinical and periprocedural risk factors for the development of iASD.
