Abstract

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia to occur in humans. Several predisposing substrates such as increasing age, heart failure, hypertension and valvular heart disease have been identified. The use of illicit drugs as the substrate for AF is not frequently recognized. Crown
