متن کاملCombined MitraClip implantation and left atrial appendage occlusion - "because it's there" revisited?
In an interview with the New York Times in 1923, George Mallory, who was to die on his third attempt to climb Mount Everest (his body was not found until in 1999), was asked why he wanted to climb the mountain. His reply was ‘‘Because it’s there’’. This phrase has since become iconic, used to justify any action or ambition that otherwise has no justification. In their article published in this ...
متن کاملLeft atrial appendage occlusion by invagination and double suture technique.
Left atrial appendage (LAA) plays a crucial role as a source of atrial thrombus in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Thus, the need to close LAA becomes evident in patients with AF who undergo concomitant mitral valve surgery. Unfortunately, it has been reported a high rate of unsuccessful LAA occlusion, regardless of the technique employed.We propose a safe and simple method for LAA occl...
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 کاملCombined MitraClip implantation and left atrial appendage occlusion using the Watchman device: A case series from a referral center.
INTRODUCTION Patients referred for percutaneous transcatheter mitral valve repair using the MitraClip® system frequently have atrial fibrillation, which imposes additional challenges due to the need for oral anticoagulation. Left atrial appendage occlusion is currently regarded as a non-inferior alternative to anticoagulation in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and both high throm...
