Abstract
The macroreentrant atrial tachycardia is very frequent in the adults with congenital heart disease. The impact of the arrhythmias on this type of patients is related to several factors: the anatomy and physiopathology of the specific congenital heart disease (CHD), the sequelae of the corrective surgery or surgical palliation, the presence of residual lesions (shunt, regurgitation), and the age and the clinical status of the patient and the comorbidities. In turn, the mechanism of the MAT depends on the peculiar features of the conduction's system in the CHD and native and acquired (post-surgery) substrates.
