• Balloon-only ablation is feasible in the majority of Balloon-only ablation is feasible in the majority of patientspatients
• Pulmonary vein stenosis may occur with Pulmonary vein stenosis may occur with cryoablationcryoablation
• Phrenic nerve injury occurring with cryoablation is Phrenic nerve injury occurring with cryoablation is largely reversiblelargely reversible
• The STOP-AF Trial endpoints were all reachedThe STOP-AF Trial endpoints were all reached
