Management of device embolization following left atrial appendage closure: Two cases and a review of the literature

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia
Objectives Device embolization (DE) following left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is a severe but uncommon complication, and limited data address optimal management strategies for this condition. This review presents two cases of device embolization (DE)

Overcoming barriers for left atrial appendage thrombus: a systematic review of left atrial appendage closure

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background Approximately 90% of intracardial thrombi originate from the left atrial appendage in non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients. Even with anticoagulant therapy, left atrial appendage thrombus (LAAT) still occurs in 8% of patients.

Long-Term Safety and Feasibility of Delayed Left Atrial Appendage Closure After Catheter Ablation

open access: yesJournal of Interventional Cardiology
Conclusions: The Delayed-LAAC is as safe and feasible as the combination procedure. However, Delayed-LAAC was associated with lower AF recurrence rate.

Correlations Between Plasma BNP Level and Risk of Thrombotic-Hemorrhagic Events After Left Atrial Appendage Closure

open access: yes
Background: Percutaneous left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) reduces the incidence of stroke/bleeding events in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, high risk of stroke, and contraindication in continuing anticoagulation therapy.

Symptomatic vs. non-symptomatic device-related thrombus after LAAC

open access: yes
Device-related thrombus (DRT) after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is associated with adverse outcomes, i.e. ischemic stroke or systemic embolism (SE). Data on predictors of stroke/SE in the context of DRT are limited. This study aimed to identify predisposing factors for stroke/SE in DRT patients.
