Complex cases of acquired pulmonary vein stenosis after radiofrequency ablation: is surgical repair an option?
...Results of catheter based interventional treatment for pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) following radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for atrial fibrillation remain suboptimal. Surgical repair may represent an alternative therapy, though long-term results have not been thoroughly investigated. We retrospectively assessed all patients in our centre undergoin...

Novel rectangular biphasic and monophasic waveforms delivered by a radiofrequency-powered defibrillator compared with co...
Published in EP Europace
A low-tilt biphasic waveform from a RF-powered defibrillator (6/6 ms 100/-50 V) is more efficacious than standard monophasic or biphasic waveforms (equivalent voltage) and is similar in efficacy to low-tilt monophasic waveforms.
Is the activation potential of Mahaim pathway always a fast potential? Implication for radiofrequency catheter ablation....
Published in EP Europace
Our results illustrated that the activation potential of Mahaim pathways is not always a fast potential. One-third of Mahaim pathways can be mapped and ablated when the slow type of M-potential was used as a target for ablation. We also confirmed high efficacy of catheter ablation of Mahaim pathways guided by activation potentials.

...Published in EP Europace
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the mechanism of cerebrovascular autoregulation in patients with neurocardiogenic syncope using bilateral transcranial Doppler (TCD) monitoring during head upright tilt table testing (HUT). Two hundred and six patients were prospectively studied. One hundred and fifty-nine subjects (77%) had a prior hist...
