Zusammenfassung: | Research on the impact of angiographically detected residual trabeculation after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is limited.
To investigate the incidence, characteristics, and clinical implications of angiographically detected residual trabeculation after LAAC using the WATCHMAN device.
We analyzed 1350 consecutive patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing LAAC using the WATCHMAN device from the OCEAN-LAAC registry, which is a prospective ongoing, multicenter Japanese registry. The inclusion criteria comprised patients who successfully underwent LAAC and whose presence or absence of residual trabeculation can be confirmed using a contrast medium. The clinical outcomes were compared between patients with and without angiographically detected residual trabeculation.
Residual trabeculation was angiographically detected in 5.6% (75/1350 patients). At the procedure, the proportion of peri-device leak (PDL) was significantly higher in the residual trabeculation group than in the non-residual trabeculation group (20% vs. 5.1%, p |
