Groups2

Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.

GroupTitleDescriptionWith the outcomeAnalysedClinicalTrials.gov code
Group 1Standard Catheter Ablation Patient Group
Patients will have a standard procedure ablation~Ablation: The doctor will perform only the standard procedure. Throughout the procedure, the researchers will document the following information for ALL patients: measurements such as whether the treatment was successful or unsuccessful, X-ray exposure time, procedure time, whether there were any complications, and other general procedural measurements.
60158OG000
Group 2Vein of Marshall and Standar Procedure
The doctor will inject Ethanol through a balloon catheter into the VOM~Ethanol: We enter the CS with a sheath advanced from the right internal jugular vein. A sub-selector catheter with a \~90° angle at the tip (typically, a left internal mammary artery angioplasty guide catheter) is advanced through the CS sheath with its tip pointing superiorly and posteriorly.
