Catheter ablation inside the coronary sinus using the CARTO mapping system successfully treated a focal atrial tachycardia originating from the coronary sinus musculature in a 34-year-old patient.
Case Report (n=1)
Highlights a rare case of focal atrial tachycardia originating from the coronary sinus musculature that was successfully ablated within the coronary sinus.
Focal atrial tachycardias originate predominantly from the right atrium along the crista terminalis and less commonly from the left atrium. Successful catheter ablation usually can be performed via an endocardial approach. We report the case of a 34-year-old patient in whom a focal atrial tachycardia was successfully ablated 4 cm within the coronary sinus after extensive mapping of the left atrial endocardium and coronary sinus using the three-dimensional CARTO mapping system. Rarely, atrial tachycardia can originate from the coronary sinus musculature and require ablation inside the coronary sinus.
Volkmer et al. (Tue,) conducted a case report in Focal atrial tachycardia (n=1). Catheter ablation inside the coronary sinus using CARTO mapping was evaluated on Successful ablation. Catheter ablation inside the coronary sinus using the CARTO mapping system successfully treated a focal atrial tachycardia originating from the coronary sinus musculature in a 34-year-old patient.
