Three patients had a history of AT ablation, two exhibited BBRT concomitant with AT during the index procedure, and two developed AT following BBRT ablation. All ATs originated from the right atrium, with the following distribution: coronary sinus ostium (CSO) (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 4), typical atrial flutter (AFL) (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 2) and mid\u2010crista terminalis (MCT) (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 1). The mean tachycardia cycle length (TCL) was 337\u00b161\u00a0ms. Acute procedural success was achieved in all cases. During a mean follow\u2010up of 54.1\u00b126.0 months, all patients remained free from AT and BBRT recurrence. However, progressive deterioration of left ventricular function requiring cardiac resynchronization therapy occurred in one patient, and two patients developed ventricular enlargement.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Concomitant AT was observed in one\u2010third of patients with BBRT without SHD.
