The modified anterior line represents a safe and effective alternative linear lesion for treating perimitral left atrial flutter.
The MAL is a safe and effective linear lesion for the treatment of perimitral LAF. Its value compared to more established linear lesions as the mitral isthmus line has to be evaluated in larger studies.
