ABSTRACT
Nine patients (8 males) whose ages ranged from 6 to 72 years old were studied. Two patients had an operated congenital cardiopathy, 2 had high blood pressure, 1 has no subject previously to radiofrequency ablation due to a left paraspecific pathway; 1 developed a cardiac failure secondary to tachycardia and 3 relapses in the first month after the procedure, of these, 2 patients were succesfully treated again. After a mean follow up of 4.5 months, these patients are asymptomatic and without antiarrythmic drugs. Analyzis of obtained signals, showed that radiofrequency that interrupted atrial flutter always occurred in zones of double potentials. Radiofrequency ablation is an effective tretament for atrial flutter and the zone of succesful ablation is associated to the presence of double atrial potentials
