Catheter Ablation of Atrial Tachycardia Originating from the Tip of Right Atrial Appendage [PDF]
Journal of Arrhythmia, 2009 Right atrial appendage tachycardia is not common and can be eliminated by catheter ablation with a high success rate and low recurrence rate. However, the structural properties of the atrial appendage, including blind-ended structure, abundant ...
