Core Tip |
Atrial fibrillation (AF) occurs in a substantial number of postoperative and post-transplantation patients. In addition, postoperative AF confers both short-term and long-term morbidity and mortality in liver transplant patients. However, the incidence of postoperative AF in patients undergoing liver transplantation and its impacts remain unclear. To further investigate, we conducted a meta-analysis to assess the rates of preexisting AF and AF following liver transplantation as well as the outcomes of liver transplant patients with AF. Incidence of AF following liver transplant does not seem to decrease overtime. Pre-existing AF and new-onset AF are potentially associated with poor clinical outcomes post liver transplantation. |
