Pericardial Patch Exclusion Technique for Left Atrial Appendage Closure [PDF]
We describe a technique of left atrial appendage occlusion that consists of autologous pericardial patch closure of the left atrial appendage orifice from within the left atrium.

Left atrial appendage closure for thrombus trapping: the international, multicentre TRAPEUR registry. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Although the presence of a thrombus contraindicates left atrial appendage closure procedure (LAAC), a previous study reported the feasibility of the thrombus trapping procedure (TTP) technique to overcome this limitation.

Displacement of occluder after left atrial appendage closure: A case report
Key Clinical Message Atrial fibrillation is closely associated with thrombotic events. In non‐valvular atrial fibrillation, 90% of thrombi are formed by the left atrial appendage.

Amplatzer left atrial appendage closure: access via transseptal puncture versus patent foramen ovale or atrial septal defect. [PDF]
AIMS To compare periprocedural and late clinical outcomes of left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) with Amplatzer devices by access through transseptal puncture (TSP) versus a patent foramen ovale (PFO) or an atrial septal defect (ASD).

Catheter-based left atrial appendage closure [PDF]
Atrieflimmer er en vanlig tilstand i befolkningen og gir økt risiko for hjerneslag. Antikoagulasjonsbehandling er effektivt for å forebygge tromboembolisme ved atrieflimmer, men av ulike grunner blir mange atrieflimmerpasienter med indikasjon for antikoagulasjonsbehandling ikke behandlet.

Left atrial appendage closure: outcomes and challenges [PDF]
Whereas the left atrial appendage plays a rather minor role under physiological circumstances, it gains an importance in patients with atrial fibrillation. Compelling evidence has revealed that the left atrial appendage is implicated as the source of thrombus in the vast majority of strokes in atrial fibrillation.
