Dickow J, Gessler N, Anwar O, Feldhege J, Harloff T, Hartmann J, et al.
J Interv Card Electrophysiol . 2025 Feb; PMID: 40019686
Background: In patients with ventricular arrhythmias (VA) admitted via the emergency department (ED), immediate catheter ablation (CA-VA) might be indicated to stabilize patients. However, the unstable condition of these patients...

Kahle A, Alken F, Scherschel K, Zhu E, Gunawardene M, Metzner A, et al.
J Clin Med . 2025 Feb; 14(3). PMID: 39941346
Age is a relevant risk factor for the development of atrial arrhythmias and an independent predictor of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. The incidence of atrial tachycardia (AT) is known to increase...

Wahedi R, Willems S, Jularic M, Hartmann J, Anwar O, Dickow J, et al.
J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol . 2025 Feb; PMID: 39930902
Background: Catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) in the elderly poses a growing challenge. Outcome data regarding CA in these patients are scarce. Methods: Octogenarians with AF or consecutive...

Scherr D, Turagam M, Maury P, Blaauw Y, van der Voort P, Neuzil P, et al.
Europace . 2025 Jan; PMID: 39824172
Background: Initial clinical studies of pulsed field ablation (PFA) to treat atrial fibrillation (AF) indicated a >90% durability rate of pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). However, these studies were largely conducted...

Rottner L, Metzner A, Hochadel M, Senges J, Willems S, Ince H, et al.
J Am Heart Assoc . 2024 Dec; 14(1):e034814. PMID: 39719410
Background: Catheter ablation is the primary treatment option for idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (VT). It plays a key role in acute therapy of electrical storm, treatment of VTs in patients with...

Veliqi A, Hakmi S, Kaiser L, Willems S, Chung D
Eur Heart J Case Rep . 2024 Dec; 8(12):ytae433. PMID: 39659466
Background: Cardiac angiosarcomas are exceptionally uncommon, and result in significant morbidity and mortality. Utilizing a multimodality approach enhances the characterization of the mass for optimal diagnostic outcomes. The recommended primary...

Gunawardene M, Hartmann J, Tigges E, Jezuit J, Willems S
Eur Heart J Case Rep . 2024 Nov; 8(11):ytae553. PMID: 39545158
Background: Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a novel ablation technology. A rare side-effect is the occurrence of mostly subclinical coronary spasms when PF energy is applied in proximity to coronary...

Bahlmann E, Gerdts E, Einarsen E, Midtbo H, Pedersen E, Rossebo A, et al.
Eur Heart J Cardiovasc Imaging . 2024 Oct; 26(2):280-286. PMID: 39467305
Aims: Sex-specific low flow was recently defined as stroke volume index (SVi) ≤ 40 mL/m² in men and ≤32 mL/m² in women. We tested the prognostic association of these cut-offs...

Jahnke C, Gramlich R, Sander C, Willems S, Chung D
Eur Heart J Case Rep . 2024 Jul; 8(7):ytae312. PMID: 39021359
Background: Cardiovascular imaging plays an important role in identifying pre-existing cardiac comorbidity prior to the decision on cancer therapy and serves as a reference for detecting changes during treatment and...
