Abstract

Percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion has been shown to be a safe and cost-effective treatment for stroke prevention in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation with increased stroke and bleeding risk. Venous system might be occluded from prior procedures or have structural abnormalities. Herein, we present a successful WATCHMAN device implantation in a patient with inferior vena cava filter thrombosis and iliac vein occlusions.
