Predictors of Device-Related Thrombus Following Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion.
BACKGROUND Device-related thrombus (DRT) has been considered an Achilles' heel of left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO). However, data on DRT prediction remain limited.

Left Atrial Appendage Aneurysm [PDF]
Left atrial appendage aneurysms (LAAA) are extremely rare. This condition is usually diagnosed incidentally or after the occurrence of thrombotic events or cardiac tachyarrhythmias in the second to fourth decades of life. It can predispose to hazardous adverse events, including atrial fibrillation, myocardial infarction, and systemic thromboembolism ...

Left atrial appendage occlusion in everyday clinical practice:Closing the gap [PDF]
Despite the deeply rooted conviction that oral anticoagulation therapy is the primary strategy to prevent ischemic strokes in patients with atrial fibrillation, non-adherence to oral anticoagulation therapy is common.

Aneurysm of the left atrial appendage [PDF]
AbstractA 2‐year old asymptomatic girl is presented in whom the chest x‐ray film led to the discovery of a grossly distorted cardiac shadow. Angiocardiography showed a giant aneurysm originating from the left atrium. At operation an intrapericardial aneurysm of the left atrial appendage, measuring 12 × 4 × 4 cm, was found. It communicated with the left

History of Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion with AMPLATZER Devices. [PDF]
AMPLATZER devices preceded WATCHMAN occluder in 2002 for catheter-based left atrial appendage occlusion. The AMPLATZER technique facilitates simultaneous closure of atrial shunts using two devices through one gear.
