Characterization of Reentrant Circuits in Left Atrial Macroreentrant Tachycardia

Abstract

The reentry circuit with a protected isthmus can be identified in 89% patients with LAMRT by electroanatomic mapping. The isthmuses were amenable to radiofrequency applications in most patients. No atrial tachycardia recurred in any patients with isthmus block.
