- Novel Technique for Box-Lesion Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation Combined with Off-Pump Coronary Surgery Aleksandr Zotov Daniil Borisov Aleksandr Troitskiy Robert Khabazov Medicina off Pump electrodes constriction coronary Vessels Introduction: We propose a new technique for box-lesion ablation combined with off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting for the treatment of patients with coronary artery disease and paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation. Methods: Eight male patients with paroxysmal (n=2) or persistent atrial fibrillation (n=6) and coronary artery disease underwent box-lesion ablation combined with off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. Box-lesion ablation was performed using a bipolar flexible clamping device with irrigated electrodes which was originally designed for thoracoscopic epicardial ablation. Results: Complete revascularization was performed in all patients. There were no deaths or major complications. At a median follow-up of 14 months, seven patients (87.5%) were in sinus rhythm. Conclusion: Box-lesion ablation can be easily and effectively combined with coronary artery surgery in an off-pump setting. 2023 artículo científico 0102-7638 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=398975126003 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3989/398975126003/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3989/398975126003/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3989/398975126003/398975126003.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3989/398975126003/movil 10.21470/1678-9741-2022-0146 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3989 Revista Brasileira de Cirurgia Cardiovascular/Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Cardiovascular Revista Brasileira de Cirurgia Cardiovascular/Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.38
