Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation After Thoracic Aortic Surgery
Conclusions Several risk factors contribute to the incidence of POAF after thoracic aortic surgery. We found that POAF significantly increased 30-day operative mortality (p < 0.0001). Our findings can be used to develop a risk stratification system for the prediction of POAF.

Late Neurologic Events After Surgery for Atrial Fibrillation: Rare but Relevant ORIGINAL ARTICLES: ADULT CARDIAC
Conclusions
After surgery for AF ablation, there is ongoing low risk of LNE even when the LAA is surgically excised. Further investigation should be pursued to clarify whether a difference exists with alternative elimination techniques and in patients in whom AF is successfully eliminated.
