摘要：

This report describes a case of transient paresis of the right diaphragm following the transcatheter radiofrequency ablation for the electrical disconnection of pulmonary veins, which recovered completely during the observational period in a 61-year-old woman with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. For electrical disconnection of pulmonary veins, careful preventive measures for phrenic nerve damage are required.
