Abstract

Ablation of atrial tachycardias arising from the superior portion of Crista Terminalis may be risky because of the possibility to injure the right phrenic nerve. Although few techniques for phrenic nerve displacement have been reported, their execution can be difficult, timeconsuming and expose the patient to further complications related to epicardial puncture. In our case, radiofrequency catheter ablation from the right superior pulmonary vein allowed us to successfully treat the arrhythmia without hampering the phrenic nerve integrity.
