Mechanistic Rationale for LAA Closure with AF and Stroke Preventionnal impairment of the left atrium and left-atrial appendage in combination with specific anatomical characteristics results in altered hemodynamics and a prothrombotic environment. This scenario sets the stage for subsequent systemic and often cerebral emboli. In addition to the well-established app

Conventional Surgery for LAA Closure of the most serious complications of AF is thromboembolism. The majority of strokes in AF are cardioembolic in nature, with the left atrial appendage (LAA) being the dominant source of emboli. Recent years have had renewed interest in mechanical occlusion of the LAA. This chapter focuses on the sur

The use of imaging techniques is of great importance throughout all phases of the implantation procedure for LAA occlusion, specifically for LAA anatomy evaluation and procedural guidance.
