Ablation of macroreentrant atrial tachycardia in patients with mechanical prosthetic valves represents a challenge for electrophysiologists, because of the complexity of the procedure and the potential complications. Moreover, the need for fluoroscopy in this type of procedure is greater, due to the risk of interference between the prosthetic valve and the ablation or mapping catheter. We present two cases of patients with mechanical prosthetic valves and atrial flutter who underwent successful ablation with no complications using the CartoUnivu™ tool, which integrates the electroanatomical map and the fluoroscopy image.
对于机械人工瓣膜患者，消融大折返性房性心动过速对电生理学家来说是一项挑战，这是由于手术的复杂性和潜在并发症。此外，由于人工瓣膜与消融或标测导管之间存在干扰风险，这类手术对荧光透视的需求更大。我们报告了两例机械人工瓣膜合并心房扑动的患者，他们使用整合了电解剖图和荧光透视图像的CartoUnivu™工具成功进行了消融，且无并发症。
