Abstract
LAA has an important pathophysiological function because it is more compliance than the LA and its contractile capacity prevents blood stasis.1,2 LAA velocity is an important parameter that worsens in mitral stenosis. LAA velocity is an important predictor of thrombus formation, independent of other hemostatic variables, including platelet and thrombotic activity. The Effects of Percutaneous Mitral Balloon Valvuloplasty on the Left Atrial Appendage Function in Patients With Severe MS is studied in this article.
