Abstract:
Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of radiofrequency catheter ablation for treating epicardial accessory pathway .Methods 8 patients with unsuccessful endocardial ablation of accessory pathway were mapped within coronary venous si-nus or middle cardiac vein and the radiofrequency catheter ablation was performed by the temperature control electrode .Results Ablation in 8 cases was successfully performed within coronary sinus or middle cardiac vein .There were no complications in all pa-tients .Conclusion Radiofrequency catheter ablation of epicardial accessory pathway within coronary sinus and middle cardiac vein is safe and effective .
