Abstract

This article reviews the latest available data in regard to the diagnosis, management, and intervention of both central and peri-device leaks that arise after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC). The aim of this article is to have a better understanding of both addressing leaks arising after LAAC, and which interventions and closure methods are best served for each type of residual leak based on etiology, size, and operator experience.
