CONCLUSIONS
Rates of GH were similar in patients who underwent CBA of the LA roof
and those who underwent PVI with a cryoballoon. Our multivariate
analysis indicated that LA roof height from the point where the LAPW and
esophagus make contact may be a reliable predictor of GH. Additionally,
our results suggest that potential GH-related symptoms can appear 1 week
after ablation. Further investigation is required to obtain evidence
that can aid in the prevention of GH.
