Review
Management of atrial fibrillation in rheumatic valvular heart disease
Curr Opin Cardiol.
2006 Jan.
Abstract
Purpose of review: Atrial fibrillation in patients with rheumatic valvular heart disease results in significant morbidity and possibly mortality.
Recent developments: The recent advances in treatment options for non-rheumatic atrial fibrillation have widened its scope of management. These treatment modalities have not been extensively validated in rheumatic valvular heart disease.
Summary: A review and comparison of the available data in atrial fibrillation and rheumatic valvular heart disease vis-à-vis non-rheumatic atrial fibrillation is presented.
