Abstract
Atrial standstill is a rare arrhythmia and several cases of atrial
standstill have been described in acute myocarditis, hypertrophic
cardiomyopathy or dilated cardiomyopathy. However, left atrial
standstill with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter after
pericardial effusion has not been reported. Here, we reported a case
with left atrial standstill, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and atrial
flutter who successfully received radiofrequency ablation.
