Abstract
Background: Research on the impact of angiographically detected residual trabeculation after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is limited.
Objectives: To investigate the incidence, characteristics, and clinical implications of angiographically detected residual trabeculation after LAAC using the WATCHMAN device.
Methods: We analyzed 1350 consecutive patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing LAAC using the WATCHMAN device from the OCEAN-LAAC registry, which is a prospective ongoing, multicenter Japanese registry. The inclusion criteria comprised patients who successfully underwent LAAC and whose presence or absence of residual trabeculation can be confirmed using a contrast medium. The clinical outcomes were compared between patients with and without angiographically detected residual trabeculation.
Results: Residual trabeculation was angiographically detected in 5.6% (75/1350 patients). At the procedure, the proportion of peri-device leak (PDL) was significantly higher in the residual trabeculation group than in the non-residual trabeculation group (20% vs. 5.1%, p < 0.001). However, the PDL and device-related thrombosis at 45 days and 1 year were comparable between the two groups (37% vs. 23%, p = 0.24; 28% vs. 31%, p = 0.84; 2.1% vs. 1.4%, p = 0.50; 6.9% vs. 6.0%, p = 0.69, respectively). The 3-year cumulative incidence of ischemic stroke, all cardiovascular death, and all-cause death were comparable between the two groups (5.7% vs. 5.5%, log-rank p = 0.96; 7.7% vs. 8.9%, log-rank p = 0.34, 31.4% vs. 22.3%, log-rank p = 0.71, respectively).
Conclusion: The angiographically detected residual trabeculation rate was 5.6%, and this population had a significantly higher prevalence of PDL at the procedure. However, the presence of residual trabeculation did not contribute to PDL or device-related thrombosis at follow-up or affect the clinical outcomes.
背景:关于左心房附件关闭(LAAC)后血管造影检测残余小梁影响的研究有限。目的:探讨使用WATCHMAN装置LAAC后血管造影检测到残余小梁的发生率、特点和临床意义。方法:我们分析了1350例连续的房颤患者,使用来自OCEAN-LAAC注册中心的WATCHMAN装置进行LAAC,这是一个前瞻性的、持续的、多中心的日本注册中心。纳入标准包括成功行LAAC的患者,其残余小梁的存在或不存在可以用造影剂确认。比较有和没有血管造影检测到残余小梁的患者的临床结果。结果:5.6%(75/1350)患者在血管造影检查中发现残余小梁。在手术过程中,残余小梁组的设备周围泄漏(PDL)比例明显高于非残余小梁组(20% vs. 5.1%, p结论:血管造影检测到残余小梁率为5.6%,该人群在手术过程中PDL的患病率明显高于非残余小梁组(20% vs. 5.1%)。然而,在随访中,残余小梁的存在并没有导致PDL或器械相关血栓形成,也没有影响临床结果。
