Atrial fibrillation following pulse methylprednisolone therapy in an adult
Abstract
The authors believe this to be the first case report of atrial fibrillation following pulse methylprednisolone therapy in an adult. The literature regarding the complications of pulse methylprednisolone therapy is reviewed, with particular emphasis on the incidence and pathogenesis of arrhythmias.
