Acute development of gastroesophageal reflux after radiofrequency catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation
Heart Rhythm, 10/05/09
Martinek M et al. – A significant number of patients undergoing RFCA of AF develop pathologic acid reflux after ablation. In addition, a subgroup of patients has a preexisting condition of asymptomatic reflux prior to ablation. This finding may explain a potential mechanism for progression of esophageal injury to atrio–esophageal fistulas in patients undergoing RFCA.
