Case report. Thrombus formation on left atrial appendage clip: surgical exclusion and anticoagulation do not obviate transesophageal echocardiography prior to cardioversion
BACKGROUND: The cornerstone treatment for atrial fibrillation (Afib) is based on the prevention of cardioembolism with the use oral anticoagulants, which inherently increase the risk of bleeding. An alternative for these patients corresponds to left atrial appendage (LAA) exclusion/closure technique...
