Application of computed tomographic angiography and echocardiography in predicting left atrial appendage thrombosis in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation
CONCLUSIONS: Both CTA and RT-3D-TEE had high predictive values for LAA thrombosis in atrial fibrillation patients.PMID:36383152 | DOI:10.5830/CVJA-2022-052

Morphometrical features of left atrial appendage in the AF patients subjected to left atrial appendage closure
CONCLUSIONS: Important morphometrical differences in LAA orifice have been found, which was significantly larger and more oval in patients with atrial fibrillation compared to healthy controls. Although no difference in LAA body type and size was observed; the LAA ejection fraction was significantly lower in atrial fibrillation rhythm patients.PMID:36165901 | DOI:10.5603/FM.a2022.0080

Left Atrial Appendage Shape Linked to Stroke Risk in AF Left Atrial Appendage Shape Linked to Stroke Risk in AF
With names like cauliflower and chicken wing, one type of LAA was associated with a more than 2.5-fold higher risk of stroke or transient ischemic attack while another with a 68% decreased risk.First Look

Relations between left atrial appendage contrast retention and thromboembolic risk in patients with atrial fibrillation
This study was designed to assess the relations between LAA contrast retention and thrombogenesis risk of the LAA in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. A total of 132 consecutive patients who underwent LAAO were enrolled. The data collected from computed tomography (CT), transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and blood samples were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were constructed to assess the association between CR, left atrial appendage thrombus (LAAT) and other factors. Contrast retention was observed in 33 patients, accounting for 25% o...

Atrial Fibrillation and Resistant Stroke: Does Left Atrial Appendage Morphology Matter? A Case Report
Conclusion: The systematic study of LAA in patients with resistant-stroke could help to identify LAA malignant morphology. The efficacy on stroke recurrence of the combined therapy (anticoagulants plus LAAO) is worthy to be tested in randomized trials.

Left atrial appendage morphology and cardiac function in patients with sinus rhythm
ConclusionsThese findings suggest that impaired LA and LAA functions are related to changes of the LAA in patients with sinus rhythm.

The left atrial appendage morphology is associated with embolic stroke subtypes using a simple classification system: A proof of concept study
The current left atrial appendage (LAA) classification system (cLAA-CS) categorizes it into 4 morphologies: chicken wing (CW), windsock, cactus, and cauliflower, though there is limited data on either reliability or associations between different morphologies and stroke risk. We aimed to develop a simplified LAA classification system and to determine its relationship to embolic stroke subtypes.
