Radiofrequency ablation of atrial flutter.
A33-year-old man with cardiac and pulmonary sarcoidosis developed ventricular tachycardia managed with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator and amiodarone therapy. Subsequently, episodes of atrial flutter triggered spurious therapies from the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, and the patient underwent electrophysiological evaluation. Common atrial flutter (caudocranial septal and cou...
متن کاملSingle-catheter validation of bidirectional block during atrial flutter ablation
Introduction Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) of typical atrial flutter (AFL) is an effective and widely performed method of treatment. Confirmation of conduction block in the cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) is the best endpoint of the procedure. Electrophysiological measurements for validation of CTI block are usually performed using 2 or 3 catheters. However, in some situations this multi-...
متن کاملSuccessful ablation of refractory neonatal atrial flutter
Case report The patient was a male infant born at 38 weeks’ gestation. Atrial flutter was diagnosed in utero at 35 weeks of gestation, at which time no hydrops fetalis was present and no treatment was commenced. At 6 hours of life, the infant developed tachycardia. The electrocardiogram (ECG) showed atrial flutter with 2:1 atrioventricular conduction (Figure 1). Initially the rhythm could be re...
متن کاملAtrial Fibrillation after Radiofrequency Ablation of Type I Atrial Flutter.
Typical atrial flutter (AFL) or type I AFL is the most common type of macroreentrant atrial tachycardia. Its prevalence increases with age and is more common in men. Ablation of the cavo-tricuspid isthmus (CTI), a critical part of the circuit, is safe and highly effective. Despite the long-term efficacy of this therapy, a significant proportion of patients undergoing CTI ablation will develop a...
متن کاملPredictors of atrial fibrillation after ablation of typical atrial flutter.
BACKGROUND The occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) after successful ablation of cavotricuspid isthmus-dependent atrial flutter (CTI-AFL) is an important medical event, but predictors of this event are still controversial. OBJECTIVE To determine the incidence of AF and its predictors in patients undergoing ablation of cavotricuspid isthmus-dependent atrial flutter (CTI-AFL). METHODS Fifty...
