Özet

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia with the rate of 1-2% in general population. It is characterized by the absence of coordinated pulses in the atrium and micro-re-entry. Increasing age, coronary artery disease and valve pathologies are the risk factors for the development of AF. It can be seen both non-cardiac surgery (10-20%) and cardiac surgery (20-40%). This disease is expected to double in the next 25 years. Despite current drug and electrophysiological treatments, death and functional limitations related to AF are still common. In this paper we present the current status of simultaneous surgical ablation for AF in the light of current literature.
