In the meanwhile, the histological changes were observed as Department of Cardiology, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical University. Wuhan 430030, China (Wang YG, Lu ZY) Department of Anatomy, Tongji Medical University, Wuhan 430030, China (Xiong XK) control. Radiofreqency energy (500 kHz) delivered was 20W×10s. The resultes were as follows: RFCA resulted in significant impairments in all the four kinds of enzymses but without statistical differences among their areas involved in this energy level, and there are no statistical significant differences when compared with those of histological lesion area. These findings showed consistency in areas of the histological and histochemical lesions resulted from RFCA.展开更多
