	abstract = {Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an established risk factor of left atrial thrombosis and systemic embolism. Traditionally pulmonary embolism (PE) is a recognized complication of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). However, whether AF is responsible for right atrial thrombosis and leads to PE has not been examined. 
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed medical records of patients with confirmed diagnosis of PE with AF (study group) from 2002–2015. Patients with PE without AF, matched by age and sex, served as controls (control group). The CHA2DS2-VASc and CHADS2 scores were classified into two categories, lowintermediate (},
