Abstract

Patients who have undergone percutaneous catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) may develop cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI)-dependent atrial flutter (AFL), which can occur either spontaneously during left atrial (LA) ablation for AF or by induction from sinus rhythm during the procedure. The electrocardiographic (ECG) characteristics of CTI-dependent AFL occurring during LA ablation have not been described. The purpose of this study was to describe the ECG features of CTI-dependent AFL occurring during percutaneous LA catheter ablation for AF.
