Catheter ablation of CTI-AFL with and without prior cardiac surgery guided by RMN are associated with high acute and long-term success rates, despite the procedural and ablation times are much longer in the postsurgical patients. However, ECG characteristics of the tachycardia may be misleading as they are more often atypical in patients after cardiac surgery.
