We describe a technique of left atrial appendage occlusion that consists of autologous pericardial patch closure of the left atrial appendage orifice from within the left atrium. This pericardial patch exclusion technique has little added risk of bleeding, can be performed through sternotomy or right minithoracotomy, and can be used in re-operative situations.
