Key result
Anatomically guided radiofrequency ablation for atrial flutter resulted in transluminal fibrosis across the whole layer of the ablation site at autopsy 2 months post-procedure.
Autopsy findings 2 months post-radiofrequency ablation for atrial flutter demonstrated transluminal fibrosis across the entire layer of the ablated isthmus.
