Incessant atrial tachycardia associated to atrial septal aneurysm treated by pulsed field ablation

An atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) is a septal deformity characterized by an abnormal protrusion of the septum toward the left or right atrium, usually at the level of the fossa ovalis. These aneurysms are identified in approximately 2% to 3% of individuals undergoing echocardiography and have occasionally been implicated in atrial tachycardias and embolic events.1 Ablation procedures for arrhythmias related to these saccular malformations are rarely described in the literature.

Abstract

An atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) is a septal deformity characterized by an abnormal protrusion of the septum toward the left or right atrium, usually at the level of the fossa ovalis. These aneurysms are identified in approximately 2% to 3% of individuals undergoing echocardiography and have occasionally been implicated in atrial tachycardias and embolic events.1 Ablation procedures for arrhythmias related to these saccular malformations are rarely described in the literature.
