Left atrial appendage occluder thrombosis after successful implantation.
We report the case of a 69-year-old woman admitted for recurrent left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombosis occurring 8 months after implantation of an Amplatzer Cardiac Plug device. The indication for LAA closure was paroxysmal atrial fibrillation with high thromboembolic risk (CHA 2 DS 2 -Vasc score, 4) and a history of intracranial bleeding 6 months previously under vitamin K antagonist with an ...
متن کاملleft atrial appendage thrombosis simulating myxoma
a 51-year-old man was admitted to the emergency department with palpitation and atypical chest pain. he had a history of percutaneous mitral valve commissurotomy 20 years previously. he did not use any drugs. physical examination was unremarkable except for a loud s1 on auscultation. the surface electrocardiogram (ecg) showed atrial fibrillation rhythmwith rapid ventricular response and right b...
متن کاملA Semi-Automated Algorithm for Segmentation of the Left Atrial Appendage Landing Zone: Application in Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion Procedures
Background: Mechanical occlusion of the Left atrial appendage (LAA) using a purpose-built device has emerged as an effective prophylactic treatment in patients with atrial fibrillation at risk of stroke and a contraindication for anticoagulation. A crucial step in procedural planning is the choice of the device size. This is currently based on the manual analysis of the “Device Landing Zone” fr...
متن کاملLeft Atrial Appendage Remodeling After Lariat Left Atrial Appendage Ligation.
BACKGROUND Left atrial appendage (LAA) ligation with the Lariat device is being used for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation. Residual leaks into the LAA are commonly reported after the procedure. Little is known about the anatomic LAA remodeling after Lariat ligation. METHODS AND RESULTS In an exploratory study, we evaluated LAA 3-dimensional geometry via computed tomographic scan in 31...
متن کاملTransesophageal echocardiographic diagnosis of left atrial appendage occluder device infection.
The safety and efficacy of a left atrial appendage closure device is currently under evaluation in a large-scale multi-center clinical trial. We report an initial case of left atrial appendage occluder device infection with Staphylococcus aureus; transesophageal echocardiography played a pivotal role in diagnosis and treatment.
