LAUSR

We propose that cardiac CT be used as the preferred Introduction Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has been an accepted treatment strategy to anticoagulation in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) who qualify for anticoagulation with a high bleeding risk. Left atrial accessory appendages (LAAA) are now being increasingly detected with use of cardiac computed tomography (CT). However, the clinical significance of LAAA remains unknown and there is no clear consensus in the management strategy in patients with LAAA being planned for LAAC. We report a case of an incidentally noted LAAA in a patient being planned for LAAC.
