Just stumbled upon uworld Question with this exact scenario -- Uworld QID: 809 Long story short, Brain and Kidney are the two most likely areas to throw a clot due to Afib, oddly enough uworld says that its less about anatomy and more about the brain and kidney are the highest perfused
All patients with AF will be on antiplatelet therapy or anti-coagulation (depending on chads scoring) to decrease embolic risk. But risk is always there.
I think this is tough cause while afib is most correct answer you would expect afib to throw clot in brain instead of reaching all the way to the kidney first

The thing about this Q is that she is taking warfarin which in theory should prevent thrombus or embolus of forming… yet a good Q

What about RCC due to 35 years of smoking leading to IVC obstruction.?
ok so i ruled out afib due to the fact that the patient was on warfarin
