摘要：

In some patients with atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter develops after administration of class IC antiarrhythmic drugs, the so-called class IC atrial flutter. Radiofrequency ablation of the right atrial isthmus results in clinical improvement in 85% of patients and provides an alternative management strategy for a subset of patients with therapy-resistant atrial fibrillation.
