Ablation techniques for mahaim fiber tachycardia

Indian Pacing Electrophysiol J. 2009;9(2):75-80. Epub 2009 Mar 15.

Abstract

Mahaim fiber exhibits atrio-ventricular node like properties and generally is localized at the lateral aspect of the tricuspid annulus. Of the varying methods for localization, ablation at the site of Mahaim potential is the most accepted and successful method. Radiofrequency ablation of Mahaim fiber has high success rates.
