Figure 1 Chronological reports from the implantable cardiac monitor. A: Episodes of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation leading into the index procedure (white arrow), absence of detected tachyarrhythmias over the following 8 months, and subsequent recurrence of atrial arrhythmias (black arrow). B: Recurrence in the atrial arrhythmia burden and no further events following reisolation of the superior vena cava (white arrow). AT/AF = atrial tachycardia/atrial fibrillation; V. rate = ventricular rate. HeartRhythm Case Reports 2019 5, 10-14DOI: (10.1016/j.hrcr.2018.09.010) Copyright © 2018 Terms and Conditions

Figure 2 Intracardiac electrograms with the Achieve catheter (labeled PV [pulmonary vein] and SVC [superior vena cava] in the respective panels) and coronary sinus catheter (labeled CS). A: The Achieve catheter in the right superior pulmonary vein (RSPV), demonstrating spontaneous activity (box) while atrial fibrillation is seen on the CS catheter, reflecting electrical isolation. Low-amplitude activity is observable in the background, most prominently the distal electrodes of the RSPV, reflecting far-field signals from the SVC and appearing to organize at the end. Artefact from phrenic nerve pacing has been marked (white arrow). B: The Achieve catheter in the RSPV, as the tachycardia became organized, demonstrating apparent 2:1 conduction into the atria, following isolation of the vein. C: The Achieve catheter in the SVC postisolation, demonstrating independent rapid activity in the SVC, not perturbing rhythm in the atria or initiating atrial arrhythmias.
