Atypical left atrial flutters present following atrial fibrillation ablation have been well-documented in the literature. These arrhythmias are known to be difficult to localize and ablate. An atypical flutter with an alternating activation pattern in the coronary sinus, however, is unusual and has rarely been discussed. In this case report, we describe the use of high-density three-dimensional anatomic mapping to successfully localize and terminate an atypical flutter with an alternating atrial activation pattern in the coronary sinus.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
