Abstract:
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and other cardiac arrhythmias may occur after stroke in absence of cardiac disease. We report a case of pontine ischemic stroke with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation of spontaneous resolution. Cardiac investigations were normal. We propose that the AF was the consequence of the stroke.
