  • Title: Atrial fibrillation, an epiphenomenon of acute Stanford type-A aortic dissection with suspected intimo-intimal intussusception.
    Author: Ciulla MM, Vivona P, Lemos A, Sozzi F, Cioffi U, Testori A.
    Journal: Clin Case Rep; 2018 Sep; 6(9):1791-1794. PubMed ID: 30214765.
    Abstract:
    Supraventricular arrhythmias can sometimes be "only" epiphenomena appearing during acute hypoxia, pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, and thrombosis. Indeed, atrial fibrillation is not rare in acute aortic dissection as it is estimated in about one half of patients and may be secondary to a perfusion deficit of the sinoatrial node artery.
