Percutaneous Coiling for Late-Acquired Peri-Device Leak Following Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion

A 77-year-old patient with previous left atrial appendage (LAA) closure suffered from transient ischemic attack 6 years after the initial procedure. Computed tomography (CT) revealed appendage patency related to a late-acquired semicircular peri-device leak. The leak was treated by percutaneous LAA...

Sumario:A 77-year-old patient with previous left atrial appendage (LAA) closure suffered from transient ischemic attack 6 years after the initial procedure. Computed tomography (CT) revealed appendage patency related to a late-acquired semicircular peri-device leak. The leak was treated by percutaneous LAA coiling. Subsequent clinical evolution was uneventful. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
