During ATs, 11.0 (9.0\u201312.9) cm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> of LVAs were identified in all, and 0.8 (0.7\u20131.7) cm<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> of dense scar was identified in four patients. Five ATs rotated around dense scar, while two rotated around functional linear block, which was confirmed during atrial pacing after AT termination. The AT circuit length was 8.7\u2009\u00b1\u20092.1\u2009cm with a conduction velocity of 30.4\u2009\u00b1\u20093.7\u2009cm\/s. A median of 3.0 (2.0\u20134.0) slow conduction areas per circuit were identified, and 17\/23 (73.9%) areas were present in LVAs, while they were at the border of the LVA and normal voltage areas in the remaining 6\/23 (26.1%). Global activation histograms facilitated the identification of the critical isthmus in all. Tailor\u2010made ablation at critical isthmuses successfully eliminated all ATs. However, one patient with AT related to functional linear block experienced recurrent AT related to dense scar, which progressed after the procedure. During a mean 14\u2009\u00b1\u200913 month follow\u2010up after the last procedure, no patients experienced recurrent ATs without any complications.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>LASARTs consist of not only fixed conduction blocks but also functional conduction blocks.
