Abstract
Nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cause of arterial thromboembolism, especially of ischemic stroke. Other than stroke AF-associated embolic events are usually underestimated but at least similarly important. We present a rare case of simultaneous multiple embolism in a 70 years old women with permanent AF.
