Why the study?
Most cases of atrial flutter are typical, making it important to recognize associated electrocardiographic features, conduction patterns, and differentiation from atypical forms.
This case report highlights the characteristic ECG findings of typical atrial flutter and its successful treatment with radiofrequency ablation.
ECG features may guide typical AFL ablation; case report leaves open prospective validation.
Atrial flutter (AFL) is classified as either “typical” or “atypical.” Most cases are typical, so it is important to recognize associated electrocardiographic (ECG) features, conduction patterns, and how it is distinguished from atypical AFL. This case report highlights a patient with characteristic ECG findings of typical AFL who underwent a successful radiofrequency ablation.
