Cryoballoon pulmonary vein isolation as a standard approach for interventional treatment of atrial fibrillation. A review and a practical guide to an effective and safe procedure

Since the cryoballoon was introduced into clinical practice, approximately half a million patients have undergone a pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) using this tool throughout the world. This single-shot technique makes the pulmonary vein isolation procedure easier and has the potential to expand acce...
