Abstract

The IntellaMap Orion^TM (Boston Scientific) is a 64-electrode basket catheter allowing for ultrahigh-density mapping of complex cardiac arrhythmias. We report the case of a basket catheter vascular entrapment, requiring surgical removal.

Keywords: atrial flutter; cardiac mapping; catheter ablation; entrapment; multipolar catheter; outcome.
