An unusual mechanism of sustained right atrial tachycardia

Indian Pacing Electrophysiol J. 2011 Nov;11(6):169-72. Epub 2011 Nov 15.

Abstract

Lower loop re-entry (LLR) flutter is a rare type of atypical right atrial flutter. Most of the reported cases occurred in association with typical flutter patterns as a transient arrhythmia. Our case is unique in the fact the LLR was sustained and persisted independently.

Keywords: right atrial tachycardia; tachycardia mechanism.
