Review: A European multicenter registry, (mainly in France, Italy and Germany), which included 1,410 patients – evidence of real-world – in which ablation performed by radiofrequency had a success rate of 74% (without arrhythmias to 3 months) and a low rate of complications, (2.6%, 0.54% CVA and 0.71% vascular injuries). With patients in whom the procedure was successful, 18% required a second ablation and 51% antiarrhythmic therapy, although the total number of patients in the proportion of patients receiving antiarrhythmic therapy accounted for 32%.
