Atrial appendage closure device - Radiology at St. Vincent's University Hospital
By A Mystery Man Writer
Description
Atrial appendage closure device. These metallic clips (arrows) are used to close off the left atrial appendage in patients at risk of thrombus formation in the appendage – typically patients with atrial fibrillation, and particularly those who cannot be anticoagulated for whatever reason. Note also the sternotomy wires.
