Prognostic Value of Galectin-3 after Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion for Predicting Peri-Device Leakage

Prognostic Value of Galectin-3 after Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion for Predicting Peri-Device Leakage

Echocardiographic detection of residual peri-device leakage (PDL) after percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) is crucial for managing anticoagulation. Galectin-3, a protein involved in tissue–foreign body interactions, may hold significance in understanding PDL and cardiac tissue remod...
