Patients and Methods: The study included 352 patients (153 males, 199 females; mean age 62 years; range 34 to 82 years) who presented to our clinic between 1995 and 2010 and were diagnosed with nonvalvular AF. The follow-up ranged from 72 to 176 months (mean 110 months). Results: The causes or associated conditions of AF were hypertension (51.1%), coronary heart disease (29.9%), heart failure (48.8%), diabetes mellitus (11.9%), and pulmonary hypertension (9.9%). Seventy-two patients (21%) died during the follow-up period. Cardiovascular death was noted in 30 patients (41.7%). Sudden death was seen in six patients (8.3%). Death from stroke occurred in 20 patients (27.8%), and 16 patients (22.2%) died of other causes (malignancies, accidents, infectious causes, etc.). Conclusion: The major cause of death was of cardiovascular origin in patients with nonvalvular AF.

Hastalar ve Yöntem: 1995 ile 2010 yılları arasında kliniğimize başvuran ve kapak dışı AF tanısı konan 352 hasta (153 erkek, 199 kadın; ort. yaş 62; dağılım 34-82) geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Takip süresi 72-176 ay arasında değişmekteydi (ort. 110 ay). Bulgular: Atriyal fibrilasyon etkeni veya ilişkili durumu olarak hipertansiyon (%51.1), koroner kalp hastalığı (%29.9), kalp yetersizliği (%48.8), diabetes mellitus (%11.9), pulmoner hipertansiyon (%9.9) saptandı. İzlem sırasında 72 hastanın (%21) öldüğü belirlendi. Ölümler 30 hastada (%41.7) kardiyovasküler nedenli, 20 hastada (%27.8) inme kaynaklı, altı hastada (%8.3) ani ölüm idi; 16 hastada (%22.2) ölümler diğer nedenlere (malignite, kaza, infeksiyon vb.) bağlandı. Sonuç: Kapak dışı AF’li hastalarda uzun dönemde ana ölüm nedeninin kardiyovasküler kaynaklı olduğu görüldü.
