Left Atrial Appendage: Physiology, Pathology, and Role as a Therapeutic Target

Left Atrial Appendage: Physiology, Pathology, and Role as a Therapeutic Target

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common clinically relevant cardiac arrhythmia. AF poses patients at increased risk of thromboembolism, in particular ischemic stroke. The CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc scores are useful in the assessment of thromboembolic risk in nonvalvular AF and are utilized in deci...
