During 6.2\u2010year (75 months) follow\u2010up, 154 (64.7%) patients were free from atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATAs) without antiarrhythmic\u2010drugs (AADs). We performed re\u2010ablation in 69 of 84 patients with ATA recurrence (average 1.3 \u00b1 0.6; median 1, total 91 procedures) using a 3D\u2010mapping system and a conventional catheter. The sites of reconnection were observed at the PV in 61 of 69 (88.4%) patients and at the posterior LA in 58 of 69 (84.1%) patients. Finally, during mean follow\u2010up of 4.6 \u00b1 1.6 years, no\u2010ATA episodes were detected in 201 (84.5%) patients without AADs. Independent predictors of ATA recurrence following a single procedure were heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HR: 2.67, 95%CI: 1.40\u20135.10, P = 0.003) and low estimated glomerular filtration rate (HR: 1.81, 95%CI: 1.11\u20132.93, P = 0.03; cut\u2010off of 62.0 mL\/min\/1.73 m\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      ). During the follow\u2010up period, there were 4 (1.7%) patients with PV stenosis (&gt;70% reduction in PV diameter); however, none of these cases required intervention. Phrenic nerve palsy was detected in 8 patients (3.4%), but resolved during 3 months in all cases.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>RHB ablation can be effective during a long\u2010term follow\u2010up for patients with paroxysmal AF.
