title: [The evaluation of the late results of destruction of the atrioventricular junction in patients with drug-resistant atrial fibrillation].
abstract: Atrial fibrillation is a commonly seen form of disordered cardiac rhythm. Catheter-radio frequency ablation of the atrioventricular junction was found out to be an effective approach to control heart rate in continued drug-refractory cardiac fibrillation permitting the quality of the patients' life to be improved. The best results are achievable in patients presenting with chronic cardiac fibrillation.
