Atypical Atrial Flutter: Electrophysiological Characterization and Effective Catheter Ablation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology

Atypical AFL is a heterogenous group of re-entrant atrial tachycardias that most commonly occur in patients with prior heart surgery or catheter ablation. The ECG pattern is poorly predictive of circuit anatomy but may still provide mechanistic insight.

Step‐by‐Step Approach to Phrenic Nerve Displacement

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology

ABSTRACT Phrenic nerve injury, though rare, can be a serious complication of catheter ablation leading to significant morbidity. The close proximity of the phrenic nerve to the site of origin of arrhythmias may also impact the success of catheter ablation.

Different leadless pacemakers working in harmony (Aveir in the atrium/Micra AV2 in the ventricle) in a patient with dextrocardia and double outlet right ventricle after high?risk infected device extraction

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology

Methods We present the first described case of using two leadless pacing systems manufactured by separate companies implanted within the same patient to provide atrial and ventricular pacing due to complex congenital anatomy.
