BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Device-related thrombosis (DRT) is one of the greatest challenges of transcatheter left atrial appendage device occlusion. Due to the invasive nature of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is being increasingly utilized in several centers for assessing adequate left atrial appendage closure and monitoring for DRT. There is a paucity of data regarding the standardized definition of DRT on CCTA for the WATCHMAN FLX™ device.
METHODS/MATERIALS: A retrospective review was conducted on 43 patients receiving WATCHMAN FLX™ device implantation with CCTA performed at the first follow-up at our institution. A comparative review of DRT predictors was performed on 10 patients who had both CCTA and TEE at the time of follow-up.
RESULTS: Hypoattenuated thickening (HAT) was a common finding on CCTA and was noted to be present in 95.35% of the patients. The combination of a large device size, peridevice gap >4 mm, and HAT located on the device gutter and 1 shoulder were characteristics present on CCTA observed in 2 patients with confirmed DRT on TEE.
CONCLUSION: CCTA is a noninvasive imaging modality for DRT monitoring, with guidelines still in development. We report potential predictors of DRT on CCTA. Additional studies are needed to further determine standardized parameters for DRT detection on CCTA and the significance of HAT with multimodality correlation.
