Ventricular ectopy following successful cryoablation for Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome in the right posterior septum: a case report.

Abstract

We report a case of new onset ventricular ectopy following cryothermal ablation of a right posterior septal accessory pathway. To our knowledge, this is the first report of secondary arrhythmias from cryothermal ablation of atrial arrhythmias.
