Atrial flutter (at least the common ‘typical’ type) is an organized circuit around the right atrium. Atrial fibrillation is a completely disorganized chaotic rhythm involving both atria, usually originating from the left atrium. Atrial flutter can usually be cured with a generally low risk ablation procedure and is harder to control with medication. Atrial fibrillation is more challenging to treat effectively but also responds to ablation.
