ABSTRACT
The absence of an inferior vena cava is a rare congenital condition often without clinical significance. Alternative venous approaches are often needed to treat these patients. We report a case of successful ablation of both isthmus dependent flutter and the AV junction using the superior vena cava in a patient with an inferior vena cava anomaly.
