Abstract: Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of radiofrequency modified maze Ⅲ (RFMM Ⅲ) plus ganglionic plexus (GP) ablation with RFMM Ⅲ alone in the treatment of atrial fibrillation with rheumatic mitral lesion. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed to analyze the clinical data of 200 patients who underwent RFMM Ⅲ plus GP ablation (n=100, GP group) or RFMM Ⅲ alone (n=100, solo group) in the treatment of atrial fibrillation with rheumatic mitral lesion. Results The sinus rhythm maintenance rate in the GP group was higher than that of the solo group 1, 6 and 12 months after operation (P=0.03, 0.02 and 0.03, respectively). The solo group showed a higher incidence of aggravating tricuspid regurgitation and more obvious left atria enlargement than the GP group 12 months after operation (P=0.03). Conclusion RFMM Ⅲ plus GP ablation, with higher sinus rhythm maintenancerate and lower recurrence rate, might be superior to RFMM Ⅲ alone in the treatment of atrial fibrillation with rheumatic mitral lesion, which might effectively improve tricuspid regurgitation in patients undergoing mitral valve replacement and be beneficial for their long-term prognosis.
