Key result
A new method of surgical left atrial appendage obliteration during mitral valve surgery resulted in 0% incidence of bleeding, thromboembolic complications, or LAA recanalization among 90 patients.
Why the study?
The study aimed to describe a new method of left atrial appendage isolation and evaluate immediate outcomes during mitral valve surgery.
Does a new surgical method for left atrial appendage obliteration prevent thromboembolic complications and recanalization in patients undergoing mitral valve surgery?
Observational (n=90)
No
Does a new surgical method for left atrial appendage obliteration prevent thromboembolic complications and recanalization in patients undergoing mitral valve surgery?
A novel surgical technique for left atrial appendage obliteration during mitral valve surgery appears safe and effective, with no early postoperative bleeding, thromboembolism, or recanalization.
New LAA obliteration technique feasible during mitral surgery; hypothesis-generating and requires randomized validation before practice change.

Муратов et al. (2021) conducted an observational in Mitral valve pathology (n=90). New method of surgical obliteration of the left atrial appendage was evaluated on Bleeding, thromboembolic complications, and LAA recanalization. A new method of surgical left atrial appendage obliteration during mitral valve surgery resulted in 0% incidence of bleeding, thromboembolic complications, or LAA recanalization among 90 patients.
