ABSTRACT
The superior vena cava (SVC) is well described as one of the most common non-pulmonary vein (PV)-triggers for atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATA). In our study we evaluated a standardized approach for electrical isolation of the SVC from the right atrium using a horseshoe-shaped lesion set with optimized and contiguous ostial RF lesions. The results are promising, demonstrating a very high rate of acute SVC isolation in a safe and time efficient manner (mostly less than 10 min).
