Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) using the first-generation cryoballoon (CB1) was characterized by a high rate of recovered pulmonary vein (PV) conduction along with a typical conduction gap pattern in patients with recurrent atrial tachyarrhythmia (ATa). Second generation (CB2) enables more uniform freezing. However, the rate of chronic PVI and PV conduction gap pattern is unknown.
