Key result
Electroanatomic mapping-guided radiofrequency ablation was used to treat a pediatric case of incessant focal atrial tachycardia originating from the non-coronary aortic sinus.
Case Report (n=1)
Demonstrates the feasibility of using 3D electroanatomic mapping to guide radiofrequency ablation for rare incessant focal atrial tachycardia from the non-coronary aortic cusp in children.
Incessant focal atrial tachycardia may be encountered in the pediatric age group although it is rarely seen. Ablation using radiofrequency or cryothermal energy is the preferred method for drug-resistant cases. Recently, 3D electroanatomic mapping systems have been increasingly used for mapping and ablation. In this report, we presented, for the first time, a pediatric case with incessant focal atrial tachycardia originating from the non-coronary aortic sinus and ablated using 3D electroanatomic mapping system.

Koca et al. (2014) conducted a case report in Incessant focal atrial tachycardia (n=1). Electroanatomic mapping-guided radiofrequency ablation was evaluated. Electroanatomic mapping-guided radiofrequency ablation was used to treat a pediatric case of incessant focal atrial tachycardia originating from the non-coronary aortic sinus.
