Popis: Abstract Background Fetal echocardiography can diagnose neonatal atrial flutter, which can cause heart failure in newborns. Little is known about catheter ablation in this population. Methods Case report that aimed to review a successful ablation in a 20‐day‐old patient with refractory atrial flutter. Results This is the first report of a successful neonatal atrial flutter ablation without any early recurrence after the procedure. Conclusions Atrial flutter ablation performed on newborns is a reliable and long‐lasting treatment option.
