Abstract
Background: Treatment of recurring atrial flutter can be challenging due to anatomical obstacles preventing complete conduction block of linear ablation lesions. Epicardial or bipolar ablation can be used as an alternative to create deeper ablation lesions but is still limitedly used in patients with atrial flutter.
Case summary: We describe a case of a 54-year-old patient with recurring peri-mitral flutter treated with ablation of an anteroseptal line using bipolar ablation to achieve a complete conduction block.
Discussion: As conventional ablation cannot always achieve, complete conduction block in linear ablation lesions alternatives may be used to create deeper lesions. In this, case bipolar ablation was used successfully for an anteroseptal line in a patient with recurring peri-mitral flutter.
