Surgical Coronary Revascularization in Underlying AF

Dr. Mariusz Kawalewski, an Assistant Professor and Heart Surgeon at the National Medical Institute in Warsaw, Poland, reviews his article appearing in the June 2024 issue of Mayo Clinic Proceedings where he discusses the details, risks, and benefits of surgical revascularization in patients with atrial fibrillation. He notes this is a special population that has not been fully addressed in randomized trials and that the benefit to successful surgical revascularization leaves patients free of Atrial Fibrillation and its associated medical treatments.
