Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia requiring ablation on the mitral annulus.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Left atrial catheter ablation (LACA) has emerged as a successful method to eliminate atrial fibrillation (AF). Recent reports have described atrio-esophageal fistulas, often resulting in death, from this procedure. Temporary esophageal stenting is an established therapy for malignant esophageal disease.
