Aim. To assess the potential of prevention cardiogenic embolism by resection of left atrium appendage (LAA) during open heart surgery in patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib). Materials and methods. Study design - cohort prospective. Study group consisted of 19 patients with AFib whom during open heart surgery for coronary and/or valvular disease additional radical resection of LAA was made. After removal of the appendage two-layer linear suture to left atrium was performed without leaving a stump. Control group consisted of 20 patients with AFib, in whom during open heart surgery LAA remained intact. Long-term results were studied using CROQ telephone questionnaire. Results. There was no hospital mortality in both groups. Long-term results in control group were followed up to 6 years, in study group up to 2 years. Radical resection of LAA in patients with AFib reduced the risk of thromboembolic events in long-term period. In control group there were 4 strokes (2 of them were fatal), but no strokes in study group (p < 0,05). Conclusion. Radical resection of LAA in patients with AFib during open heart surgery for coronary and/or valvular disease prevents cardiogenic arterial embolism.
