Balloon occlusion of the distal coronary sinus facilitates mitral isthmus ablation

Background Mitral isthmus ablation is challenging. Blood flow in the coronary sinus (CS) may act as a heat sink and reduce the efficacy of radiofrequency ablation. Objective This study investigates whether balloon occlusion of CS facilitates mitral isthmus ablation. Methods This single-center, prosp...

description Background Mitral isthmus ablation is challenging. Blood flow in the coronary sinus (CS) may act as a heat sink and reduce the efficacy of radiofrequency ablation. Objective This study investigates whether balloon occlusion of CS facilitates mitral isthmus ablation. Methods This single-center, prospective, randomized controlled trial included patients undergoing ablation for atrial fibrillation. After circumferential pulmonary vein isolation and roof line ablation, mitral isthmus ablation was performed during left atrial appendage pacing using an irrigated ablation catheter (endocardium: maximum power: 40/50 W, maximum temperature: 48°C; CS: maximum power: 25/30 W, maximum temperature: 48°C). An air-filled 40 × 10-mm percutaneous transluminal angioplasty balloon (Opta Pro, Cordis Europa, LJ Roden, The Netherlands) was used to occlude the CS on the epicardial aspect of the ablation line. Left coronary and CS angiography were performed before and after the procedure. Results Forty-six patients were studied. The balloon was successfully positioned in the distal CS in 20 of 23 patients (87%). Mitral isthmus block was achieved in 41 of 46 patients (91%). According to intention-to-treat analysis, there was significant reduction in the need for epicardial CS ablation (48% vs. 83%, P = .01) in the CS occlusion group but no difference in acute success rate. Secondary analysis showed reduction in mean total ablation time (9.4 ± 5.5 vs. 13.3 ± 4.6 minutes, P
