Lessons learned from experimental models of cerebrovascular aneurysms to improve endocardial device occlusion of the left atrial appendage

In patients with atrial fibrillation, left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion devices represent an alternative to anticoagulation but are associated with residual peridevice leaks (PDLs) and device-related thrombi (DRT). Similarly, cerebrovascular aneurysms can be treated with coil embolization, but p...
