Abstract

Atrial arrhythmias are delayed manifestations after atrial switch procedures for d-transposition of the great arteries. Often times, these arrhythmias are intraatrial reentry tachycardias that arise in the pulmonary venous neo-atrium. Access and ablation in the pulmonary venous neo-atrium may require baffle puncture, risking damage to the baffle. We describe a case of neoatrial arrhythmia ablation in d-transposition of the great arteries using remote magnetic guided catheter navigation system using a retrograde approach without doing a baffle puncture.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
