Abstract

Atrial fibrillation is an irregular heart rhythm with increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Commonly due to thromboembolism at the left atrial appendage. Guideline therapy for atrial fibrillation is anticoagulation. Alternative treatment includes closure with the Watchman device. We present a case of Watchman device-related thrombus seven months after placement.
