Atrial flutter was described about one hundred years ago. The major advances have been achieved concerning its mechanism, diag-nosis, and management. At present we know that atrial flutter is frequently a right atrial reentrant tachycardia. It has recently been demonstrated that the incidence of stroke associated with atrial flutter approaches that of atrial fibrillation. Radiofrequency ablation has become primary choice for management of paroxysmal or chronic atrial flutter. The current data related to the mechanism, classification, and management of atrial flutter reviewed in this article.Keywords: Atrial flutterTurkiye Klinikleri J Int Med Sci 2005, 1(15):41-45
