The Strengths and Weaknesses of Left Atrial Appendage Ligation or Exclusion (LARIAT, AtriaClip, Surgical Suture).
Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics 2023 June
Left atrial appendage (LAA) epicardial exclusion has been associated with addressing 2 potential deleterious consequences attributed to the LAA, namely, thrombus formation and an arrhythmogenic contributor in advanced forms of atrial fibrillation. With more than 60 years of history, the surgical exclusion of the LAA has been firmly established. Numerous approaches have been used for surgical LAA exclusion including surgical resections, suture ligation, cutting and non-cutting staples, and surgical clips. Additionally, a percutaneous epicardial LAA ligation approach has been developed. A discussion of the various epicardial LAA exclusion approaches and their efficacy will be discussed, along with the salient beneficial affects on LAA thrombus formation, LAA electrical isolation and neuroendocrine homeostasis.
