文摘Advances in clinical and fimdamental research, which have been promoted over last decades have led to a well- established understanding of atrial fibrillation （AF） as an epiphenomenon that despite similar manifestations may have different underlying mechanisms and thus require in- dividualized treatments. With rare exceptions of AF caused by mutations in genes coding ion channels in pa- tients with structurally normal atria, fibrotic replacement of atrial myocardium remains the comer stone of atrial pa- thology in patients with AF.
