Description

Jose Carlos Pachon-M and colleagues discuss a rescue method in 2026. The method is cardioneuroablation. It can help when standard ablation blocks the heart's relay by accident. Slow-pathway ablation cures a common fast rhythm. The target sits millimetres from the AV node. Block still strikes two to three percent of cases. Block normally means a lifelong pacemaker.

The case involved a man in his early fifties. His final burn caused complete nodal block. He felt faint and breathless, with no reversal in thirty minutes. Operators skipped the pacemaker plan. They ablated a nearby nerve cluster instead. Normal conduction returned in the same session.
