- Abstract
Left Atrial Flutter After RF Catheter Ablation. We report an arrhythmic complication in two patients in whom a procedure directed at isolating one or two pulmonary veins had been performed. The complication was related to pulmonary vein disconnection scars after ablation. Both patients developed new clinical tachycardia (atypical atrial flutter) secondary to a reentrant phenomena in the vicinity of a previously ablated pulmonary vein.(J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol, Vol. 14, pp. 417-421, April 2003).
