Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common tachyarrhythmia in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). AF emergence associated with significant clinical deterioration in patients with HOCM, that's why maintenance of sinus rhythm is desirable. The most papers are reported results about catheter AF ablation but only paper including date about concomitant AF ablation during septal myectomy.
