Device-Related Thrombus After Left Atrial Appendage Closure

Although left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has proved non-inferior to oral anticoagulants in patients with AF, there has been recent concern about the occurrence of late complications, especially device-related thrombus (DRT), which was associated with increased risk of stroke. In this article, t...
