Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFA) has evolved as an effective treatment modality in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, complication rates associated with RFA of AF have been cited in the range of 3.5 - 5% with the majority consisting of cardiac tamponade, vascular complications, and thromboembolic phenomena. In this review, the complications of AF ablation will be discussed along with associated clinical management strategies.
射频导管消融术(RFA)已发展成为心房颤动(AF)患者的一种有效治疗方式。然而,AF射频消融术的并发症发生率据报道在3.5%-5%之间,其中大多数包括心脏压塞、血管并发症和血栓栓塞现象。在本综述中,将讨论AF消融术的并发症以及相关的临床管理策略。
