The feasibility of a Box isolation strategy for non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in elderly patients

Background: Catheter ablation of non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (non-PAF) is a therapeutic challenge especially in elderly patients. This study describes the feasibility of a posterior left atrium isolation as a substrate modification in addition to pulmonary vein isolation, the so-called Box is...
