Left Atrial Appendage Closure in Atrial Fibrillation Patients with Cancer

Journal of Clinical Medicine
Background: There are limited data about left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) in patients with cancer. We therefore sought to compare the outcome after LAAC in patients with vs. without cancer in a multicentre registry.

Percutaneous left atrial appendage closure

European Geriatric Medicine, 2012
Abstract Introduction Atrial fibrillation is a growing epidemic in the western world. Stroke as the most dreaded complication is effectively prevented by oral anticoagulation. Although effective in preventing stroke, oral anticoagulants come at a price of bleeding complications. Concerns about bleeding lead to a high rate of drug discontinuation and

Left Atrial Appendage Closure (LAAC)

2017
Atrial fibrillation (AF) affects approximately 15 million patients worldwide and carries an increased risk of stroke. It is estimated that 90 % of stroke comes from embolism of left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus in non-valvular AF. The concept of mechanical occlusion of the LAA to reduce stroke risk has been refined over the years since it was first ...
