Refractory mitral valve commissural-dependent atrial tachycardia is defined as: 1.

Failure of catheter ablation: At least one previous attempt at radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) targeting the mitral valve commissure has been unsuccessful (either due to recurrence post-procedure or failure to achieve bidirectional block at the commissure). 3.Intolerant to at least one antiarrhythmic drug (AAD). 4.The patient must be capable of and willing to provide written informed consent to participate in this study. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Pregnant or breastfeeding women. 2. Presence of left atrial thrombus on preoperative imaging. 3. Life expectancy less than 1 year. 4. Coagulation disorders or contraindications to anticoagulant therapy.
