摘　　要：This case report describes the presentation,diagnosis,and management of a 68-year-old man with acute cerebral infarction accompanied with atrial fibrillation.The patient presented an acute cerebral infarction with mild tricuspid regurgitation and pulmonary hypertension one month before.This time,he again developed dizziness and slurred speech for one hour,and obvious headache.Clinical symptoms and signs,and multiple diagnostic tests,including non-contrast computed tomography(CT),CT angiography,and cerebral CT perfusion analysis,revealed a definitive diagnosis of cerebral infarction with atrial fibrillation.The patient was treated with a multidisciplinary treatment approach.This case study underscores the critical importance of swift and multidisciplinary management in cases of acute cerebral infarction.In addition,the case prompts further exploration into potential contributory factors,such as tricuspid regurgitation and pulmonary arterial hypertension;tricuspid and mitral regurgitations are associated with atrial fibrillation in patients with acute ischemic stroke regardless of the severity and subtypes of valvular regurgitation.
