Cryoablation and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) have been studied in the greatest detail. We present the results of 164 laparoscopic cryoablations and 82 percutaneous RFAs performed in our institution and compare
Cryoablation versus radiofrequency catheter ablation for AV nodal re-entrant tachycardiaThis is the protocol for a review and there is noThe objectives are as follows: To assess the efficacy and safety of cryoablation versus radiofrequency catheter ablation for AV nodal re-entrant tachycardia (AVNRT)...
Cryoablation, an alternative energy source, has been reported to have similar acute and long term efficacy and safety rates as radiofrequency ablation for patients with atrial arrhythmias from randomized or nonrandomized clinical studies7. In addition, it may overcome some disadvantages of radiofrequency...
The current management of Barrett's esophagus includes treatment of GERD and surveillanceendoscopy to detect progression to HGD or adenocarcinoma. The finding of HGD or early-stageadenocarcinoma warrants mucosal ablation or resection (either endoscopic mucosal resecti...
Cooled radiofrequency ablation as a treatment for knee osteoarthritis Cryoablation Cryoablation (also known as cryoneurolysis) is performed using a novel device to produce lesions in the peripheral nervous tissue by applying low temperatures to the targeted site, causing temporary destruction of the nerve...

While radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) of AFL has a relatively high long-term success rate, it can cause complications, including cardiac perforation and tamponade, and it is associated with significant pain during ablation. Catheter cryoablation may have some inherent advantages over RFCA for ...
Introduction: Catheter ablation is recommended for drug-refractory atrial fibrillation (AF). Cryoablation (CBA) has shown to be equivalent to radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in paroxysmal AF. However, there is a paucity of evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of CBA compared to RFA in ...
Aims Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of septal accessory pathways (APs) is associated with a significant rate of first procedure failures and complications. Cryoablation is an alternative energy source but there are no studies comparing both ablation techniques. We aimed to systematically review the ...
