Cardiac Malformations Presenting as Congenital Atrial Flutter
Abstract
THE TERM “CONGENITAL ATRIAL FLUTTER” has been used to indicate that the flutter is believed to have been present before birth and has been documented in the perinatal period.1 This condition is extremely rare. In the literature up to 1970, Anttolainen and Simila1 were able to find only 16 cases that fulfilled these criteria. Only 6 of these 16 cases were associated with congenitally malformed hearts. The following case is unique in that the association of tetralogy of Fallot with congenital atrial flutter has not been reported previously.This content is limited to qualifying members.
