The Great Masquerader: A successful pulmonary vein isolation with cryoablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation manifesting with recurrent syncopal episodes

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrythmia observed in clinical practice. Early detection of AF is paramount to prevent fatal complications such as cardiomyopathy, heart failure, and stroke. Manifestation of AF varies, including being either asymptomatic or having transient palpitation, e...
