Efficacy of ablation at the anteroseptal line for the treatment of perimitral flutter.
BACKGROUND Left atrial flutter following atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation is increasingly common and difficult to treat. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of ablation of the anteroseptal line connecting the right superior pulmonary vein (RSPV) to the anteroseptal mitral annulus (MA) for the treatment of perimitral flutter (PMF). METHODS We systematically studied patients who were previous...
متن کاملBipolar radiofrequency catheter ablation for refractory perimitral flutter: a case report
BACKGROUND Mitral isthmus is often targeted as a part of stepwise approach during radiofrequency ablation for persistent atrial ablation. Acute success rate in achieving the mitral isthmus block is only modest, late reconduction rate is relatively high and, consequently, incomplete lesion may be proarrhythmic. We describe the first-in-man experience with successful MI ablation by bipolar RF ene...
متن کاملIsolation of the conduction between the Marshall bundle and distal coronary sinus and the entire coronary sinus for an atrial tachycardia after catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation
Introduction Even though mitral isthmus block is completely achieved after pulmonary vein (PV) isolation for atrial fibrillation (AF) by adding a linear ablation, in some cases atrial tachycardias (ATs) can occur that break through between the left atrial appendage and left PVs. This type of perimitral flutter has been reported as a ridge-related reentry (RRR). Jiang and colleagues speculated t...
متن کاملRetrograde ethanol infusion in the vein of Marshall: regional left atrial ablation, vagal denervation and feasibility in humans.
BACKGROUND The vein of Marshall (VOM) is an attractive target during ablation of atrial fibrillation due to its autonomic innervation, its location anterior to the left pulmonary veins and drainage in the coronary sinus. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 17 dogs. A coronary sinus venogram showed a VOM in 13, which was successfully cannulated with an angioplasty wire and balloon. In 5 dogs, elect...
متن کاملPrimary Pulmonary Vein Leiomyosarcoma: A Case Report
Primary leiomyosarcoma of the heart is extremely rare and found in about 0.2% of all cardiac tumors. Here in a 26-year-old man with progressive dyspnea, which had started since 2 months ago, is presented. Echocardiography revealed a left atrial mass, which was suggestive for a atrial myxoma.On the surgery, a tumoral tissue in the left atrium and pulmonary veins with attachment to peripheral sof...
