“…In our study, AF-related medicine did not diminish after closure, and in agreement with Wi et al ,13 we found no indication that closure cured prevalent AF. In a review, Vecht et al 2 concluded that ASD closure decreases the development of AF within the first five years.…”

“…These data, including ours, are therefore not able to conclude that closure itself, or the method of closure is related to the development of AF. Another study by Wi et al 22 suggested that ASD closure was effective in preventing recurrence of paroxysmal AF, but not in patients with persistent AF. We could not confirm this in the eight patients with prior AF of which seven had a recurrence.…”

ObjectiveCurrently, consensus is lacking on the relation between closure of atrial septal defect (ASD) and the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF), which is a known complication in ASD patients. More importantly, studies reporting on the treatment applied for AF in ASD patients are scarce. The aims of this study were (1) to assess the incidence of AF in ASD patients, (2) to study the relation between closure and AF and (3) to evaluate applied treatment strategies.MethodsA single-centre retrospective study in 173 patients with an ASD was performed. We analysed the incidence of AF, the relation of AF with closure, method of closure and the treatment success of therapies applied.ResultsAlmost 20% of patients with an ASD developed AF, with a mean age of 59 (±14) years at first presentation of AF during a median clinical follow-up of 43 (29–59) years. Older age (OR 1.072; p<0.001) and a dilated left atrium (OR 3.727; p=0.009) were independently associated with new-onset AF. Closure itself was not independently associated with AF. First applied treatment strategy was rhythm control in 77%. Of the 18 patients treated with antiarrhythmic drugs 50% had at least 1 recurrence of AF.ConclusionNo clear relation between closure of the ASD and AF could be assessed. This is the first study describing applied therapy for AF in ASD patients of which medical rhythm control was the most applied strategy with a disappointing efficacy.

“…3,9 Some articles have reported the efficacy of the cryoMaze procedure for conversion to SR in patients with AF who underwent mitral valve surgery or other disease. 5,[10][11][12][13] Previous studies included patients with various causes of mitral regurgitation. In this study, we focused on patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation with persistent AF.…”
