EPICARDIAL CLIP CLOSURE OF THE LEFT ATRIAL APPENDAGE: REPLY [PDF]

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, 2021
Epicardial surgical clip is showed to be a safe and effective tool in order to achieve a complete left atrial appendage (LAA) exclusion thus reducing the risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. Historically, other methods as surgical ligation, internal oversewing or external stapling showed to be largely uneffective with an incidence of ...
