Why the study?
Does the modified RA maze procedure reduce AT recurrence compared to anatomic isthmus block in patients with refractory AT undergoing Fontan revision?
Does the modified RA maze procedure reduce AT recurrence compared to anatomic isthmus block in patients with refractory AT undergoing Fontan revision?
The modified RA maze procedure is highly effective at eliminating late atrial tachycardia recurrence in patients undergoing Fontan revision compared to simple anatomic isthmus block.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May favor modified RA maze for AT prevention in Fontan revision; leaves open need for randomized confirmation before practice change.
