- Iatrogenic vertebral artery injury during catheter ablation treated using coil embolization Tsukasa Oshima Kenichiro Yamagata Yu Shimizu Satoshi Koizumi Katsuhito Fujiu Issei Komuro Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology AbstractThe internal jugular vein (IJV) is occasionally used for blood access during catheter ablation. Additionally, accidental injury of the vertebral artery during an IJV puncture is a rare complication that can result in catastrophic events, such as death. However, vascular access complications cannot be completely prevented despite the introduction of ultrasound‐guided punctures. Here, we present a case of a patient with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation that required catheter ablation. 10.1111/pace.14970 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/
