Abstract:
The article analyzes the results of reconstructive valves operations and CABG with MAZE performed in the
Regional Center for Cardiac Surgery in Odesa over the past 6 years in patients with chronic, paroxysmal and
persistent forms of AF. The expediency of complementing open heart surgery (CABG, reconstructive valve
surgery) with MAZE surgery was shown to all patients with paroxysmal, persistent and chronic forms of AF.
The effectiveness of the appointment of antiarrhythmic and anticoagulant therapy in these groups of patients
was evaluated.
