Percutaneous Retrieval of a Sequentially Embolized Amulet Device

Key Result

Transcatheter retrieval successfully removed a left atrial appendage occlusion device that sequentially embolized to the mitral apparatus, left ventricle, and aorta.

Key Points

• This case aims to describe the complications arising from a left atrial appendage occlusion device placement and its retrieval.
• Presentation of a case involving device embolization
• Use of a transcatheter approach for retrieval
• Intervention involving the left atrial appendage, mitral apparatus, left ventricle, and aorta
• The occlusion device successfully embolized to multiple heart structures
• The device was effectively retrieved without additional complications
