Typical Atrial Flutter Mapping and Ablation.

ABSTRACT

Isthmus-dependent flutter represents a defeated arrhythmia. Possibly one of the most outstanding successes in terms of understanding the mechanism behind it has led to an effective, relatively simple, and safe targeted therapy. Technology, fulfilling a number of the clinical electrophysiologist's dreams, has linked diagnosis and therapy in computerized systems showing real-time imagines of the right atrium, the arrhythmia circuit, and the ablation target. The entire history of clinical electrophysiology is contained in its path and atrial flutter needs to be regarded with immense respect for a large amount of knowledge that its study always engenders."
