💡 #EPeeps ever wondered if transseptal access is still possible in patients with septal occluder devices? 👉 Spoiler: It is — if you know 🫀 anatomy. 🤓 Our latest #HeartRhythm publication explored how to safely perform #TSP for AF ablation in patients with atrial septal occluders. 👏 Congrats to Prof. @Phiso_de and @MoneebKhalaph Khalaph for leading and writing the systematic evaluation of transseptal access in patients with septal occluders! 👉 🧩 Grateful to contribute with anatomical correlations that helped turn a complex challenge into a reproducible clinical pathway. 👇 Here’s the key insights: ✅ Anatomical precision makes all the difference. ✅ When you map the interatrial septum in relation to various occluder types, you’ll find a consistent area that remains accessible, even after device implantation, and usually located at the posterior-inferior aspect of the Fossa Ovalis. ✅ With detailed imaging + a strong understanding of spatial relationships, we showed that this approach is not only feasible but also reproducible. 🧠 This isn’t just about technique — It’s about respecting anatomy. 🧐 Curious? 🔗 Full text: DOI: 10.1016/j.hrthm.2025.03.1996 💥 Welcome to our one-day course on „Clinical Anatomy of the Heart for Successful Arrhythmia Treatment“ shorturl.at/W8Uhk 🙏 Honored to be part of incredible team @HdzNrw @chris_sohns, @GuramImnadze, @melhamriti, @MBraunEP, @VanessaSciacca_ @maxmoersdorf, @VolkerRudolph1,@ChristianHeeger, @AndreasMetzner7, @AndreasRillig et al. #AnatomyForEP #Electrophysiology #AFablation #HeartRhythm #MedicalResearch #Cardiology #AnatomyMatters
