Better outcome has been suggested for repeat procedures after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, when recurrence presented as organized atrial tachycardia (OAT) compared to recurrent AF. However, this contradicts the finding of more advanced atrial remodeling in patients with OAT recurrence and may be related to iatrogenesis by substrate modification during the index procedure. Therefore, we examined the prognostic significance of the type of recurrent arrhythmia after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) without additional substrate modification.
