DOI: 10.5152/anatoljcardiol.2021.809
Abstract: In patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) with a high risk of bleeding, left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has gradually become the best alternative to long-term oral anticoagulant therapy in preventing stroke.1 However, in some… read more here.
