Session 4.2 - Case & Discussion: A Novel Approach to AF Ablation: improving Outcomes Through Robotic Surgery
This session, chaired by Zane Khalpey (Scottsdale, US), presents a robotic, minimally invasive epicardial approach to atrial fibrillation ablation, outlining mapping techniques, lesion sets, cryo-assisted pain control and perioperative strategies that deliver high one-year freedom from atrial fibrillation, reduced hospital stay and zero major complications. Panelists Devi Nair (Jonesboro, US), Raul Doshi (Scottsdale, US) and John Rickard (Al Maryah Island, AE) note that this workflow offers robust posterior wall and appendage treatment, encouraging EP clinicians to rethink patient selection and remain open to hybrid surgical–electrophysiology approaches.
