This article focuses on a study related to the left atrial dysfunction in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) after successful rhythm control for more than 3 months. AF is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. It is well known that AF is associated with increased risk of embolic stroke. Loss of left atrial ( LA) pumping, dilatation of the LA chamber, and decreased cardiac output may result in blood stasis and therefore a cardiac source of emboli. Converting AF into sinus rhythm followed by long-term maintenance of sinus rhythm can restore LA contraction, decrease LA size, and increase cardiac output
