Core Tip |
Atrial fibrillation is typically ablated using pulmonary vein isolation through transfemoral venous access. When this is not possible, alternative entry points are required. The patient showcased in the case report had bilateral femoral vein occlusions due to chronic thrombosis requiring access via the right internal jugular vein. Successful ablation was performed, and the patient was discharged the same day. This case highlights the feasibility of internal jugular vein access for pulmonary vein isolation as well as the importance of physician adaptability in unexpected circumstances. |
