{"product_id":"thoracic-vein-arrhythmias-shih-ann-chen-9781405118880","title":"Thoracic Vein Arrhythmias: Mechanisms and Treatment","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1998 Professor Haïssaguerre and his colleagues made the initial observation in patients that triggering foci in or around the pulmonary veins initiate some types of atrial fibrillation. Since then it has become clear that atrial fibrillation and other atrial tachyarrhythmias can be initiated (and possibly maintained) by triggering foci in any of the thoracic veins. This concept is now one of the most current topics in electrophysiology, and while it is a topic of frequent discussion in the major cardiology and electrophysiology journals, \u003ci\u003eThoracic Vein Arrhythmias: Mechanisms and Treatment\u003c\/i\u003e is the first state-of-the art multi-authored textbook that integrates the advances made in this rapidly developing new area of cardiac arrhythmias for the global community.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEdited by Drs.
