Background: It is well known that the thrombus triggering stroke in patients with atrial
fibrillation (AF) mainly comes from the left atrial appendage (LAA). This study aims to …

The majority of cardioembolic strokes in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF)
are resulted from clot formation in the left atrial appendage (LAA). Current stroke risk …

Extant clinical research has underscored that patients suffering from atrial fibrillation (AF)
bear an elevated risk for stroke, predominantly driven by the formation of thrombus in the left …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) carries out a 5-fold increase in stroke risk, related to embolization of
thrombi clotting in left atrium (LA). Left atrial appendage (LAA) is the site with the highest …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common and life-threatening disease. For the patients with AF,
more than 90% of the thrombi are formed in the left atrial appendage (LAA), thrombus …

Background and objectives The left atrial appendage (LAA) is the most common region for
thrombus formation in atrial fibrillation (AF). Morphological parameters such as shape, size …

Most strokes in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) are thought to arise from thrombus
formation in the left atrial appendage (LAA). Assessing the hemodynamics in LAA and left …

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) patients are at high risk of stroke with∼ 90% clots
originating from the left atrial appendage (LAA). Clinical understanding of blood-flow based …

Background. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is considered the most common human arrhythmia. In
nonvalvular AF, around 99% of thrombi are formed in the left atrial appendage (LAA) …

The left atrial appendage (LAA) is a complex cardiovascular structure which can yield to
thrombi formation in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF). The study of LAA fluid …
