Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are real problem of public health in developing and developed countries. It causes high mortality and morbidities by its complications such as the atrial fibrillation (AF) which often worsen the prognosis of patients. The relation between the two pathologies is until now enigmatic and its physiopathology - despite a large proposed explanations in many scientific papers – is unknown. Is -new-onset AF really ischemic due to a myocardial infraction of atrial myocardium? Some of authors said yes and explained it by an early occlusion circumflex coronary artery that causes an acute atrial infract that triggers supraventricular arrythmia.
