Fractionation Mapping of the Ganglionated Plexi for Cardioneuroablation.
The Journal of innovations in cardiac rhythm management(2021)
摘要
Cardioneuroablation (CNA) is an emerging technique used to treat patients with vasovagal syncope (VVS). We herein describe a case of CNA targeting the atrial ganglionated plexi (GPs) based upon anatomical landmarks and fractionated electrogram (EGM) localization in a 20-year-old healthy female who presented to our center with malignant VVS and symptomatic sinus pauses, the longest of which measured 10 seconds. She underwent acutely successful CNA with a demonstration of vagal response noted following ablation of the left-sided GPs, and tachycardia was noted with right-sided GP ablation. All GP sites were defined by anatomical landmarks and EGM analysis. By using the fractionation mapping software of the EnSite Precision™ cardiac mapping system (Abbott, Chicago, IL, USA) with high-density mapping, fragmented EGMs were successfully detected in each GP site. One month after vagal denervation, no recurrent syncopal episodes or sinus pauses had been recorded. Longer-term follow-up with an implantable loop recorder is planned. Broadly, we performed CNA in a patient with VVS by combining high-density mapping and fractionation mapping software in a novel approach, which allowed us to detect fractionation in all GP sites and demonstrate an acute vagal response. This workflow may facilitate the introduction of a standardized technique suitable for widespread use.
