Radiofrequency catheter ablation for atrial flutter following orthotopic heart transplantation.
A 26 year old woman with a diagnosis of limb girdle muscular dystrophy and peripartum cardiomyopathy underwent orthotopic heart transplantation using standard atrial anastomoses. Recurrent atrial flutter was demonstrated in the absence of histological evidence of cellular rejection. Radiofrequency ablation of the flutter circuit was successfully performed allowing the avoidance of long term ant...
متن کاملradiofrequency catheter ablation of type 1 atrial flutter
it has been well - established that common atrial flutter is due to intraatrial macroreentry and its reentry circuit locates in the right atrium. this reentry circuit has been characterized to involve an area of slow conduction identifiable electrophysiologically at the low posteroseptal right atrium and anatomical narrow isthmus snrrounded by the inferior vena capa, coronary sinus astium and t...
متن کاملTransvenous Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation for Atrial Flutter and Atrial Fibrillation
Transvenous radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFA) for treatment of atrioventricular (AV) reentrant tachycardia and AV nodal reentrant tachycardia is remarkably successful. To the best of my knowledge, there has not been a large randomized trial comparing RFA with other treatments for these tachycardias. The lack of such trials is due at least in part to the self-evident efficacy of RFA in this...
متن کاملCatheter ablation of Atrial Incisional Tachycardia mistaken for Atrial flutter
Incisional sustained tachycardias are frequent in patients who have undergone a surgical repair of interatrial defect. A 43-year-old woman with drug refractory, highly symptomatic, persistent atrial tachycardia in the last year, was referred to our unit for catheter ablation. The patient had undergone a cardiac operation for repairing interatrial secundum ostium type defect with a patch five ye...
متن کاملSymptomatic improvement after radiofrequency catheter ablation for typical atrial flutter.
OBJECTIVE To assess the changes in quality of life, arrhythmia symptoms, and hospital resource utilisation following catheter ablation of typical atrial flutter. DESIGN Patient questionnaire to compare the time interval following ablation with a similar time interval before ablation. SETTING Tertiary referral centre. PATIENTS 63 consecutive patients were studied. Four patients subsequentl...
