Evaluation of myocardial injury induced by different ablation approaches (Radiofrequency ablation versus Cryoablation) in Atrial flutter patients: A meta-analysis.

CONCLUSION: These results indicate that CRYO in comparison to RF significantly increases myocardial injury in AFL patients. Additionally, it decreases pain perception during the procedure. Further large-sampled studies are needed to support these findings. PMID: 31076543 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
