We experienced a rare case of atrial flutter originating from the giant left appendage (LAA). The local potential of the ablation catheter presented with a rare finding, appearing up to 185 ms earlier than the surface P-wave in the distal LAA. With thoracoscopic LAA clipping, tachycardia was successfully controlled.

Introduction: Left atrial appendage aneurysm (LAAA) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly that involves the progressive dilatation of the left atrial appendage (LAA), predisposing the patient to serious complications such as atrial tachyarrhythmias, life-threatening systemic thromboembolism, and cardiac dysfunction.
Methods And Results: We described a case of a 36-year-old woman with incessant atrial tachycardia (AT) originating from LAAA, which surgical intervention successfully terminated AT after attempted ablation failed. The AT terminated after the LAA was excised.

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare neoplasms originating from fibroblastic mesenchymal cells. This case report details a 43-year-old female patient with cardiac SFT, a rarity in the medical literature, who presented with palpitations and a known malignancy. Supraventricular tachycardia was diagnosed in the emergency department, and a subsequent echocardiography revealed a giant mass in the left atrium after sinus rhythm restoration.
