Définition
• Flutter auriculaire : Tachycardie auriculaire régulière, > 240/min, avec absence de retour à la ligne isoélectrique entre 2 déflections auriculaires dans au moins 1 dérivation ECG.
Mécanisme : macro-réentrée auriculaire
• Atypique : dont le circuit de réentrée ne dépend pas de l’isthme cavo-tricuspide.
En Pratique
• ECG ECG de flutter typique
• Diagnostic établi par la cartographie
-
• Plus rares que le flutter typique
• Patients avec cardiopathie
• Association fréquente avec AC/FA
• Post ablation de FA ++
• Localisation auriculaire droite ou gauche
Flutters Auriculaires Atypiques
Circuits de macro-réentrée
• Autour d’obstacles anatomiques (ostia, anneau mitral, Crista terminalis, sinus coronaire)
• Autour de cicatrices chirurgicales ou de patchs
• Autour de zones inexcitables (cardiopathies)
-
Moyens d’investigation
• Cathéters multipolaires et cartographie utilisant la technique de l’entraînement

When should we consider LA Flutter ?
• ECG: Predominantly positive F wave in V1
Low voltage F Waves in inferior leads
In all pt with an ECG not characteristic of typical atrial flutter
• Presence of hemodynamically significant left HD
• History of open heart surgery
• History of AFib ablation procedure
• Entrainment mapping excluding RA during EP study

Stepwise Approach to Diagnose Post Afib AT
• 1- Assessment of AT CL stability with a decapolar CS catheter:
- CS activation sequence
- TCL variability > 15% suggests focal AT
• 2- Exclude typical flutter using IVC-TA isthmus entrainment maneuvers

Stepwise Approach to Diagnose Post Afib AT
• Activation mapping with
a roving catheter•Both ant and post walls
activated in the same direction
excludes roof dependent
macroreentry
• Entrainment maneuvers
at opposite LA walls:
- MI & septal

opposite walls excludes
perimitral or roof dependent
macroreentry respectively

Long term outcome after LA Flutter Ablation
• Up to 20% of LA Flutter recurrences
less if validated isthmus conduction block
• High incidence of AFib likely due to the progression of the underlying heart disease

Question # 1• LA roof is not part of the tachycardia circuit
• Result of MI entrainment is sufficient enough to diagnose perimitral macrorentry
• Result of MI entrainment is sufficient enough to perform MI ablation

Tachycardia termination during MI ablation
Answer # 1• LA roof is not part of the tachycardia circuit: PPI>>> TCL
• Result of MI entrainment is sufficient enough to diagnose perimitral macrorentry
• Result of MI entrainment is sufficient enough to perform MI ablation
- Both LA septal and MI
entrainment are required to
diagnose perimitral flutter.
Other macroreentries
utilizing MI are possible
- As soon as the MI is
recognized as part of the
tachycardia circuit, MI
ablation can be perform
-
LAA Pacing
-
Question # 2
• I pace the lateral part of the MI line to confirm clockwise MI block
• I pace the CS to confirm counterclockwise MI block
• There is complete MI block, I stop the ablation procedure
• There is still residual MI conduction
LAA pacing

Answer # 2
• I pace the lateral part of the MI line to confirm clockwise MI block
• I pace the CS to confirm counterclockwise MI block
• There is complete MI block, I stop the ablation procedure
• There is still residual MI conduction
LAA pacing
CS activation is from distal to proximal which identifies residual MI conduction

Question # 3
• CS activation is typical of perimitral macroreentry and I start ablating the MI?
• CS electrograms reflect LA and CS musculature activation ?
• I ablate within the CS to disconnect CS musculature ?
• I perform activation mapping with the LA?
• I perform entrainment at IVC-TA isthmus ?

Answer # 3
• CS activation is typical of perimitral
macroreentry and I start ablating the MI?
• CS electrograms reflect LA and CS musculature
activation ?
• I ablate within the CS to disconnect CS
musculature ?
• I perform activation mapping with the LA?
• I perform entrainment at IVC-TA isthmus ?
-CS is activated almost synchronously, which does not suggest perimitral
macroreentry
-Always best to understand tachycardia mechanism before ablation
-It is worth to do IVC-TA entrainment to exclude typical flutter even if the surface
ECG and the CS activation are not suggestive. Prior extensive LA/RA ablation (CS
os) may modify the usual typical flutter ECG pattern and atrial activation

Question # 4• MI entrainment suggest MI dependent macroreentry
• LA roof entrainment suggest roof dependent macroreentry
• I cannot conclude and I perform anterior and posterior activation mapping
• I proceed to roof line ablation
• I perform LA septal entrainment

Answer # 4
• MI entrainment suggest MI dependent macroreentry
• LA roof entrainment suggest roof dependent macroreentry
• I cannot conclude and I perform anterior and posterior activation mapping
• I proceed to do roof line ablation
• I perform LA septal entrainment
-Long PPI excludes MI from the tachycardia circuit
-LA septal entrainment is not mandatory, result from LA roof
entrainment is enough to proceed to do roof line ablation

CS Mapping after Roof Line Ablation
-
Question # 5• The macroreentry was not LA roof dependent
• Conduction gap within the roof line cannot be excluded
• CS 7-8 shows continuous fragmented atrial electrograms covering more than 70% of the TCL supporting ablation at that site
• I perform MI and/or LA septal entrainment
• I do activation mapping around the mitral annulus
-
Answer # 5• The macroreentry was not LA roof dependent
• Conduction gap within the roof line cannot be excluded
• CS 7-8 shows continuous fragmented atrial electrograms covering more than 70% of the TCL supporting ablation at that site
• I perform MI and/or LA septal entrainment
• I do activation mapping around the mitral annulus
-TCL prolongation suggests the tachycardia was LA roof dependent
-Even if CS activation sequence is modified, LA roof line conduction gap can not be excluded
-Intermittent block within CS fragmented potentials suggests dead end pathway
-
MI Entrainment
PPI = TCL + 20 msec : this site is part of the tachy circuit

Question # 6
• There is block at the MI
• I check the roof line
• I perform MI entrainment
• I perform LA septal entrainment
• I look for a focal atrial tachycardia
-
Answer # 6• There is block at the MI
• I check the roof line
• I perform MI entrainment
• I perform LA septal entrainment
• I look for a focal atrial tachycardia
- Identical CS activation sequence suggests residual conduction MI
- Need to map the epicardial side of the MI
-

Question # 7
• There is complete block at the MI
• I perform IVC-TA entrainment
• I perform MI entrainment
• I perform LA septal entrainment
• I look for a focal atrial tachycardia
-
Answer # 7
• There is complete block at the MI
• I perform IVC-TA entrainment
• I perform MI entrainment
• I perform LA septal entrainment
• I look for a focal atrial tachycardia
-Change of CS activation sequence and TCL prolongation suggest tachycardia
circuit does not depend on MI anymore
-However, residual MI conduction cannot be excluded
-Because of the CS activation sequence (pCS dCS) IVC-TA and LA septal
entrainment are useful to exclude RA or septal macroreentry

Question # 8
• Electrograms recorded at the lasso catheter are far field potentials from both LAA and PVs
• Lasso 15-16 electrograms may reflect localized reentry
• I perform entrainment maneuvers at Lasso 15-16
• I perform entrainment maneuvers at dAbl
• I move the Lasso catheter to another area
