Why the study?
Does the Modified Anterior Line (MAL) safely and effectively treat perimitral left atrial flutter?
Does the Modified Anterior Line (MAL) safely and effectively treat perimitral left atrial flutter?
The modified anterior line represents a safe and effective alternative linear lesion for treating perimitral left atrial flutter.
Supports MAL feasibility for perimitral LAF; hypothesis-generating pending randomized validation.
The MAL is a safe and effective linear lesion for the treatment of perimitral LAF. Its value compared to more established linear lesions as the mitral isthmus line has to be evaluated in larger studies.
