Atrial Fibrillation Ablation in a Patient with Cor Triatriatum Sinister and Left Common Pulmonary Vein: Impact of Left Atrium Anatomy on Ablation Approach
Atrial fibrillation is the most common presentation in adult patients with cor triatriatum sinister. The key to successful and safe catheter ablation in these patients is an accurate exploration and thorough understanding of the left atrial anatomy, both before and during the procedure. Catheter manipulation is highly dependable on left atrial anatomy, including the interatrial septum, insertion of pulmonary veins and cor triatriatum membrane. Anatomical variants such as the left common pulmonary trunk may influence the ablation approach and outcome. We report the case of a 52-year-old patient with cor triatriatum sinister and the left common pulmonary vein variant who underwent successful high-power, short-duration catheter ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
