Background Atrial flutter (AFL) is a supraventricular tachyarrhythmia. In the ECG tracing, it is marked by a fast, irregular atrial activity of 280–500 beats per minute.

Identification of Fetal Atrial Flutter by Doppler Tissue Imaging [PDF]
A 26-year-old woman presented at 33 weeks of gestation with a singleton fetus with tachycardia. A complete fetal echocardiogram revealed a structurally normal fetal heart without signs of hydrops. The fetal heart rate was between 200 and 220 bpm. Evaluation of the rhythm with pulsed Doppler and M-mode scanning was not definitive.

Fetal Unguarded Mitral Valve Orifice, Aortic Atresia, and Severe Left Heart Enlargement
Unguarded mitral valve orifice is a rare disease with only 7 described cases in the literature. We describe the first known case of unguarded mitral valve orifice with normal segmental cardiac anatomy, severe left ventricular dilatation and dysfunction ...

Fetal cardiac arrhythmias: Current evidence
This article reviews important features for improving the diagnosis of fetal arrhythmias by ultrasound in prenatal cardiac screening and echocardiography. Transient fetal arrhythmias are more common than persistent fetal arrhythmias.

Idiopathic Atrial Flutter Associated with Dilated Cardiomyopathy in a Preterm Newborn: A Case Report
Background: Arrhythmias in neonates are uncommon and usually affect newborns with a normal heart or associated with structural heart disease. Meanwhile, one uncommon type of supraventricular arrhythmias is atrial flutter (AF), which is reentry mechanisms

Neonatal atrial flutter: Three cases and review of the literature
Atrial flutter (AFl) is known to be a seldom type of fetal and neonatal arrhythmia. Although it could end in severe morbidities such as hydrops fetalis or even death, with early prenatal diagnosis and prompt therapeutic approaches the majority of AFl ...
