Atrial fibrillation after esophagectomy is a marker for postoperative morbidity and mortality  Sudish C Murthy, MD, PhD, Simon Law, MBBChir, MS, FRCSEd, FACS, Brian P Whooley, MD, Andreas Alexandrou, MD, Kent-Man Chu, MBBS, MS, FRCSEd, FACS, John Wong, PhD, FRACS, FACS  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 126, Issue 4, Pages 1162-1167 (October 2003) DOI: 10.1016/S0022-5223(03)00974-7

Figure 1 Hospital mortality rates after esophagectomy of patients with and without postoperative AF. Although there is a decreased mortality rate during the most recent experience, AF remains associated with poor postoperative outcome throughout the study period.
