Abstract
For patients with typical and atypical atrial flutter (AFL) but without history of atrial fibrillation (AF), the long-term cardiovascular (CV) outcomes after catheter ablation for AFL remain unclear. We compared the long-term all-cause mortality and CV outcomes in patients with AFL receiving catheter ablation compared with the results with medical therapy.
