Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) has become a valuable alternative to long‐term anticoagulation for stroke prevention in patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation (AF), especially in those at high bleeding risk. Hypoattenuated thickening (HAT) and device‐related thrombus (DRT) remain notable postprocedural concerns ...

A giant left atrial appendage aneurysm with a large pinball-like thrombus in a 2 year old
Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2012 Congenital left atrial appendage aneurysm is very rare. We describe a giant left atrial appendage aneurysm with a pinball-like mobile thrombus in a 2-year-old child with cardioembolic stroke.

Transparavertebral Occlusion of a Large Venovenous Collateral in a Fontan Patient
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Patients with a univentricular heart following completion of the Fontan circulation often experience varying degrees of desaturation due to the formation of venovenous collaterals. We present a rare case of a Fontan patient with an enlarged azygous vein shunting into the pulmonary venous system, causing significant desaturation. As no standard

Computational Fluid Dynamic Analysis of the Left Atrial Appendage to Predict Thrombosis Risk [PDF]
, 2018 During Atrial Fibrillation (AF) more than 90% of the left atrial thrombi responsible for thromboembolic events originate in the left atrial appendage (LAA), a complex small sac protruding from the left atrium (LA). Current available treatments to prevent

Real‐World Edoxaban Concentrations in Older Patients Receiving Reduced‐Dose Regimens
Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.Real‐world edoxaban concentrations in older patients receiving reduced‐dose regimens. Low trough concentrations (< 12 ng/mL) were associated with an increased risk of thromboembolism. Among patients meeting the ELDERCARE‐AF criteria, low drug levels were more frequent with the 15 mg regimen than with the 30 mg regimen.
