In patients with repaired congenital heart disease other mechanisms of AT may occur, due to the presence of an atriotomy that can provide a substrate for reentry. The aim of the present study was to identify the mechanisms of atrial tachycardia (AT) occurring late after atrial septum defect (ASD) repair, with the help of a three\u2010dimensional electroanatomical mapping system.<\/jats:p><jats:p> <jats:italic>Methods and Results:<\/jats:italic> Twenty\u2010two consecutive patients presenting with AT underwent complete electroanatomic mapping (CARTO<jats:sup>\u00ae<\/jats:sup>, Biosense Webster, Diamond Bar, CA) of spontaneously occurring and inducible right ATs. Complete maps of 26 ATs were obtained. Three tachycardia mechanisms were identified: single\u2010loop macroreentrant atrial tachycardia (MAT) (n = 7), double\u2010loop MAT (n = 18), and focal AT (n = 1). In all MATs, protected isthmuses were identified as the electrophysiological substrate of the arrhythmia, most frequently the cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) (n = 24), and a gap between the inferior vena cava and a line of double potentials (n = 11). A mean number of 13.5 \u00b1 2.1 radiofrequency applications were delivered to transect these critical parts of the circuit. During a follow\u2010up of 25 \u00b1 16 months the RF ablation was acutely successful in all patients. Thirteen patients (59%) had an early recurrence of MAT and needed an additional ablation procedure. One of those patients needed two additional ablation procedures.<\/jats:p><jats:p> <jats:italic>Conclusions:<\/jats:italic> Three\u2010dimensional electroanatomic mapping is useful to identify postsurgical AT mechanisms; the CTI isthmus is involved in 92% MAT, and if the right atrial free wall (RAFW) abnormal tissue related to surgical scar is present this substrate contributes to the MAT circuit<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1540-8167.2005.30605.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,7,7]],"date-time":"2005-07-07T14:18:20Z","timestamp":1120745900000},"page":"681-687","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":79,"title":["Mechanisms of Right Atrial Tachycardia Occurring Late After Surgical Closure of Atrial Septal Defects"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"ISABELLE","family":"MAGNIN\u2010POULL","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"CHRISTIAN","family":"De CHILLOU","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"HIELKO","family":"MILJOEN","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"MARIUS","family":"ANDRONACHE","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"ETIENNE","family":"ALIOT","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,4,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0735-1097(85)80497-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.85.2.469"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0735-1097(96)00424-X"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM199903183401103"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9149(93)91014-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.93.2.284"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.100.25.2507"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.91.3.707"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9149(96)00034-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.93.3.502"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.101.6.631"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1540-8167.2001.00017.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.103.16.2060"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/euhj.2001.2468"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.103.5.699"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.103.18.2266"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0735-1097(01)01192-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.96.6.2016"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nm1296-1393"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_21_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.101.6.631"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_22_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.102.11.1283"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_23_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0735-1097(02)01858-2"}],"container-title":["Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1046%2Fj.1540-8167.2005.30605.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1046\/j.1540-8167.2005.30605.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,15]],"date-time":"2023-10-15T00:47:57Z","timestamp":1697330877000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1046\/j.1540-8167.2005.30605.x"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2005,4,28]]},"references-count":22,"journal-issue":{"issue":"7","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2005,7]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1046\/j.1540-8167.2005.30605.x"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1046\/j.1540-8167.2005.30605.x","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1045-3873","1540-8167"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1045-3873","type":"print"},{"value":"1540-8167","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2005,4,28]]}}}
