Objective We analyzed the medium-term follow-up of cryoballoon ablation (CBA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) and the clinical risk factors predicting outcome. Methods AF patients treated for the first time with CBA in a 4.5-year period were studied retrospectively. Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) was achieved via a single cryoballoon with diameter of 28 mm. Left atrial diameter (LAD) was...
