Atrial fibrillation is associated with an increased risk of embolic events. The left atrial appendage (LAA) is believed to be an incubator for thrombus formation. LAA exclusion has been advocated to potentially reduce embolic events arising from the LAA.The aim of the study was to determine the feasibility of a closed-chest surgical suture ligation of the LAA in man.Thirteen patients undergoing either...
Left atrial appendage (LAA) is implicated in maintenance of atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial tachycardia (AT) associated with persistent AF (PsAF) ablation, although little is known about the incidence and mechanism of LAA AT.The purpose of this study was to characterize LAA ATs associated with PsAF ablation.In 74 consecutive patients undergoing stepwise PsAF ablation, 142 ATs were encountered...
