RESUMO
Catheter ablation (CA) of left atrial tachycardia adjacent to implanted septal closure devices represents a multifaceted challenge. We describe the case of a 57-year-old patient with remote percutaneous closure of atrial septal defect who underwent successful CA of left atrial tachycardia adjacent to the septal device using a transaortic approach and RF energy. Besides the technical difficulties and associated risks, interference between the device and applied RF parameters may limit ablation efficiency. Further research is required to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and optimal energy type/parameters when ablating arrhythmias adjacent to these devices.
