1 Complete thoracoscopic ablation of the left atrium via the left chest for treatment of lone atrial fibrillation  Ju Mei, MD, PhD, Nan Ma, MD, PhD, Fangbao Ding, MD, PhD, Yin Chen, MD, Zhaolei Jiang, MD, Fengqing Hu, MD, Haibo Xiao, MD, PhD  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 147, Issue 1, Pages (January 2014) DOI: /j.jtcvs Copyright © Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Complete thoracoscopic ablation of the left atrium. (A) The entire procedure is performed thoracoscopically through 3 ports on the left chest wall. The black lines with numbers indicate the intercostal spaces. The red lines show the position of the ports. (B) The bipolar radiofrequency ablation clamp is placed around the left pulmonary vein. (C) The bipolar radiofrequency ablation clamp is placed around the right pulmonary vein. (D) The linear lesion from the left inferior pulmonary vein to the right superior pulmonary vein by the bipolar radiofrequency ablation clamp. (E) The ablation of 3 circles and 2 lines on the left atrium. (F) Amputation of the left atrial appendage with a stapler. PV, Pulmonary vein; SVC, superior vena cava; IVC, inferior vena cava.
