A comparison between stand-alone left atrial appendage occlusion and resection as a method of preventing cardiogenic thromboembolic stroke
ConclusionThere were no significant differences between LAAO and LAAR in terms of the feasibility and the effectiveness as a method for stroke prophylaxis only to selected patients for both procedures, although further studies including the comparison between groups with the same backgrounds to confirm the authentic differences in the clinical results between these procedures.
