[Typical atrial flutter catheter ablation complicated by right coronary artery spasm and occlusion. Case report and review of the literature].

We report a case of right coronary artery occlusion during atrial flutter ablation managed with percutaneous coronary intervention, combined with a review of the literature, in order to obtain pathogenetic and epidemiological information about this complication.
