Date: Sep 29, 2021
Question:
"PVI ablation (93656) completed. A left atrial roof line and left atrial floor lines ablated for afib were also performed post PVI ablation. An ablation of a septo-pulmonary bundle connecting the epicardial with the endocardial atrial layers in the postero-inferior aspect of the right inferior pulmonary vein that triggered and maintained atrial fibrillation now performed."
