Simultaneous VATS diaphragm plication with radiofrequency ablation and auricle resection of the left atrium

Abstract

The first successful experience of simultaneous approach in surgical treatment of the diaphragm relaxation and relapse of atrial fibrillation is described. The technical aspects of surgical intervention and the prospects for the development of minimally invasive surgery in thoracic and cardiovascular surgery are discussed.
