Why the study?
Does early cryoablation reduce recurrence rates in children and adolescents with AVNRT?
Does early cryoablation reduce recurrence rates in children and adolescents with AVNRT?
Performing cryoablation for AVNRT at a younger age in children and adolescents is associated with lower recurrence rates and an excellent safety profile.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May favor earlier cryoablation in pediatric AVNRT; extends observational data but leaves randomized confirmation open.
Our findings show that cryoablation had no complications and a very good success rate. Type of cryolesion is not predictive of long-term success, whereas lower recurrence rate is achieved when cryoablation is performed at a younger age.
