1/ Incidence of AF: 5% of the population > 60 years, candidates for AF surgery in USA 2/ Etiologies: among patients applying for a life insurance: 40% lone AF, 60% with cardiopathy 3/ Restoration of sinus rhythm after valve repair depends upon the duration of AF (> 1year) and left atrium dimensions (>60mm) 4/ The presence of preoperative AF does not influence the operative risk Specific surgical procedures aiming at treating atrial fibrillation must add minimal morbidity SURGICAL TREATMENT OF ATRIAL FIBRILLATION Chua JTCS 1993 & Obadia JTCS 1997

LEFT COX-MAZE PROCEDURE left appendage pulmonary veins mitral

COX-MAZE PROCEDURE associated to mitral valve surgery N = 40 AGE: YRS (49+16 YRS) ETIOLOGIES OF MITRAL VALVE DISEASE: degenerative20 rheumatic17 others 3 Indications: Chronic AF > 6 months35 Intermittent AF (left maze)5

MITRAL VALVE PROCEDURE associated to the Cox-maze MAZE DURATION complete: 52 min left: 23 min

RESULTS complete maze = left maze mortality: 1 (2,5%) (septic shock) reoperation for bleeding: 3 coronary bypass for circumflex stenosis 1 pace maker (complete maze) 1 fluid retention (complete maze)4 –lower limbs edema : 4 –pericardial effusion: 2 –pleural effusion: 2

POSTOPERATIVE EKG complete maze = left maze immediate1 month AT 1 MONTH, FREEDOM FROM AF: 75% n = 39

LATE EKG 1 month AT ONE YEAR: FREEDOM FROM AF: 69% 18 pts with complete maze 1 year

POSTOPERATIVE TREATMENT Transient stroke at 10 mths, sinus with AC : 1 anticoagulantsantiarhythmics

RADIOFREQUENCY ABLATION RECENT CONCEPTS 1/ No transmurality when atrial wall thickness > 4 mm 2/ The epicardial is less efficient than the endocardial approach (epicardial fat + circulating blood) Thomas, Annals 2003:75: / Atrioesophageal fistula is a potential complication: cachectic patient, LA ectasia, TEE probe Mohr, J Thorac CVS 2002;123: / Circumflex coronary stenosis is a potential complication Fayad, Annals 2003;76: / Age at surgery and postop arrhytmias are predictive factors of a negative outcome Benussi, Eur J Card Surg 2003;17:524-9

CONCLUSIONS 1/ The Cox-Maze operation is very efficient in restoring normal sinus rhythm in chronic or intermittentAF and remains the gold standard 2/ The left maze seems to be as efficient as the complete maze in pts with mitral valve disease 3/ Radiofrequency ablation could be an important adjunct in pts with lone/non-mitral related AF 4/ Antiarrhythmics are often necessary to maintain a good long term results 5/ The TE risk is decreased but not eliminated
