Ganglionated plexi (GP), consisting of conglomerations of autonomic ganglia on the epicardial surface of the heart, have been shown to play a significant role in different arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation. GP ablation has become an adjunctive procedure in the treatment of atrial fibrillation, while it has been used successfully in preliminary studies in vasovagal syncope. This review will present the current data on the physiology and clinical applications of GP ablation in the treatment of atrial fibrillation and other diseases.
神经节丛(GP)由心脏心外膜表面的自主神经节集合组成,已被证明在包括心房颤动在内的不同心律失常中起重要作用。GP消融已成为心房颤动治疗中的一种辅助手段,同时在血管迷走性晕厥的初步研究中也已成功应用。本综述将介绍GP消融在心房颤动及其他疾病治疗中的生理学和临床应用的当前数据。
