Key result
High-density mapping and radiofrequency ablation successfully terminated a complex dual-loop atrial flutter in a patient with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries, with no recurrence at 8 months.
Why the study?
Extremely aberrant cardiac structure makes electrophysiological procedures and radiofrequency ablation very difficult in ccTGA, with only sporadic cases reporting successful ablation of atrial flutter.
Case Report (n=1)
No
High-density mapping and entrainment mapping can successfully guide radiofrequency ablation of complex atrial flutter in patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries and aberrant anatomy.

May inform ablation in ccTGA with complex flutter; leaves open generalizability and durability in larger cohorts.
Hu et al. (2019) conducted a case report in Complex atrial flutter in congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (n=1). High-density mapping and radiofrequency ablation was evaluated on Termination of atrial flutter. High-density mapping and radiofrequency ablation successfully terminated a complex dual-loop atrial flutter in a patient with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries, with no recurrence at 8 months.
