The Senning operation used to be widely performed for an intracardiac repair in a complete transposition of the great arteries. During the long-term follow-up, supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is often observed because of the complex suture lines. The typical mechanism of a Senning-related SVT is cavo-tricuspid isthmus-dependent atrial flutter. On rare occasions, complex SVTs (e.g., biatrial tachycardia (BiAT)) whose diagnosis and treatment are challenging, may occur. We report a rare case of a BiAT following a Senning operation that was successfully ablated from the superior vena cava, and the local activation time histogram module (CARTO3 V7 module [Biosense Webster, Irvine, CA, USA]) was crucial for analyzing the complex circuit.
