摘要
Catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation has rapidly become used worldwide. This review provides an overview of the three main approaches currently used to perform ablation of the pulmonary veins. The efforts being made to raise efficacy from its current 70–80% and lower the risk of major complications from 5% are also discussed.
