A 24 year old woman presented with symptoms of near syncope, dizziness and palpitations and was found to have typical atrial flutter. She underwent an uncomplicated right atrial flutter ablation. Three years later she presented with recurrent symptoms of dizziness and near syncope. Holter monitor ...
Complete bidirectional cavo-tricuspid isthmus (CTI) block is mandatory for radio-frequency (RF) ablation of typical atrial flutter (AF). CTI block can be assessed by a simplified method using two catheters and the technique of differential pacing, but long-term results in large series are poorly...

This is significant because the maze often does not stop a patient from having episodes of the atrial reentry arrhythmia that originally instigated AF [220]; there is a body of literature on radiofrequency ablations for atrial tachycardia and atrial flutter after maze surgery [218, ...
ablationfibrillationatrial flutterremodelingBACKGROUND: Atrial electrical remodeling may be important for the initiation and perpetuation of atrial arrhythmias. Whether paroxysmal atrial flutter (AFL) and chronic AFL cause electrical remodeling of the atria has not been conclusively determined. METHODS AND ...
Although electrical cardioversion can be used to treat almost any abnormal fast heartbeat (such as atrial flutter and ventricular tachycardia), it is used most frequently to convert atrial fibrillation to a normal rhythm. Anticoagulants such as rivaroxaban (Xarelto), apixaban (Eliquis), and warfarin...

This provides evidence that AF ablation is safe in this group of patients. Of note, many patients had flutter and creation of a flutter line was one of the keys to success.[127] References Compartmentalization of the Atria Two approaches to compartmentalization of the atria are surgical, by ...
