pubmed:abstractText |
Electrophysiologic studies have shown that spontaneous initiation of atrial fibrillation (AF) by ectopic beats may originate from within pulmonary veins. The extensions of left atrial myocardium are considered to play a role, but there is little detailed anatomic information available, particularly in humans.
