摘要
The image describes a case of left atrial appendage occlusion in a patient with atrial fibrillation, previous haemorrhagic stroke, and left atrial appendage thrombosis. A cerebral vascular filter was used during the device implantation. The use of cerebral embolic protection device can increase the safety of left atrial appendage occlusion, in selected high-risk patients.
