Ablation of Peri‐“Mitral” Flutter in a Patient with Congenitally Corrected Transposition of Great Vessels and Situs Inversus
Key result
Anterior mitral line ablation successfully treated peri-'mitral' flutter in a patient with congenitally corrected transposition of the great vessels and situs inversus.
