Atrioesophageal Fistula After Radiofrequency Ablation Presenting With Status Epilepticus: A Case Report.

Vinh K Pham1, Fernando Salgado.   

Abstract

Radiofrequency (RF) ablation for atrial fibrillation is commonly performed. Atrioesophageal fistulas are an uncommon complication of RF ablation and can present with status epilepticus due to an extensive vascular air embolus. Initial treatment may require a high level of suspicion of this rare occurrence to help prevent further injury and increase the likelihood of a meaningful recovery.
