Left Atrial Appendage Aneurysm

Left atrial appendage aneurysm (LAAA) is a rare anomaly, which predisposes to hazardous cardiovascular events. We present a rare case of a 26-year-old female with a giant left atrial appendage aneurysm. The left atrial appendage was incidentally detected during her pregnancy. Six months later after her parturition, the patient was referred to our department and successfully received surgical treatment prophylactically to prevent potential complications. To the best of our knowledge, only about 100 cases of LAAA have been reported.

Left Atrial Appendage Aneurysm

AbstractLeft atrial appendage aneurysm is an extremely rare anomaly and as such has been rarely imaged or seen intraoperatively with very little accumulated management experience. The available scant published literature stresses resection on cardiopulmonary bypass as the safest and by far the most commonly applied technique. We suggest a novel alternative imaging-guided management utilising an off-pump tourniquet snare technique under live transoesophageal echocardiography.
