Abstract
Key Clinical MessageAtrial fibrillation ablation, including pulmonary vein isolation immediately after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC), is a rare and challenging issue. Intracardiac echocardiography guidance can help identify the LAAC device position for safe atrial fibrillation ablation without LAAC device‐related adverse events even immediately after LAAC device implantation.AbstractEarly phase atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) is a rare and challenging issue. Here, we present a case illustrating the feasibility of AF ablation under intracardiac echocardiography guidance immediately after LAAC device implantation without LAAC device‐related adverse events.
