Case report: pulmonary artery perforation during transseptal puncture for left atrial appendage closure requires emergency cardiac operation

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Patients with atrial fibrillation who take a high bleeding risk and are not candidates for oral anticoagulation therapy are increasingly being referred for left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) as an alternative method of stroke prevention.

Case Report: Acute Thrombotic Angiopathy of Atrial Appendage Epicardial Veins: A Seemingly Innocuous Finding Portending a Fatal Outcome

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Thrombotic angiopathy is a pathologic description to describe endothelial injury, and with sufficient and sustained injury can lead to exposure of underlying tissue factor and the deposition of associated fibrin material.

Catheter Ablation of Atrial Tachycardia Originating from the Tip of Right Atrial Appendage

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2009
Right atrial appendage tachycardia is not common and can be eliminated by catheter ablation with a high success rate and low recurrence rate. However, the structural properties of the atrial appendage, including blind-ended structure, abundant ...
