Is SIPVI Sufficient for Focally Triggered Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation? Introduction: Selective ipsilateral pulmonary vein isolation (SIPVI) has shown comparable efficacy in focal triggered atrial fibrillation (AF) versus isolation of all pulmonary veins (PVs), yet the sufficiency for such an abla...
