The interatrial septal thickness (IAST) reflects the changes of the atrial wall in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Complex fractionated atrial electrograms (CFAEs) were consistently positioned on the interatrial septum, especially in the remodelled left atrium (LA). We sought to characterize the relationship between IAST and LA CFAE area, as well as the acute procedural and clinical outcomes of catheter ablation in persistent AF patients.
