  1. Echocardiography
    Echocardiography, particularly transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), is currently the modality of choice for evaluation of the LAA. It allows complete delineation of the LAA anatomy in almost all patients and, at the same time, also permits a detailed assessment of its function.

    What is left atrial appendage?
    The left atrial (LA) appendage is a common source of cardiac thrombus formation associated with systemic embolism. Transesophageal echocardiography allows a detailed evaluation of the structure and function of the appendage by two-dimensional imaging and Doppler interrogation of appendage flow.

    Echocardiogram shows disappearance of atrial reverse flow, decrease in systolic flow with a greater diastolic than systolic flow, a prolonged onset of systolic flow, appearance of an early systolic reverse flow in an atrial fibrillation case.

    How is left atrial appendage (LAA) function assessed?
    Color tissue velocity imaging (A) and strain imaging for the assessment of left atrial appendage (LAA) function. On tissue velocity imaging, positive waves (toward the transducer) corresponding to the LAA emptying are seen during diastole and negative wave (due to LAA filling) is seen during systole.

    Does transesophageal echocardiography predict left atrial appendage morphology?
    Background Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is the diagnostic modality of choice for visualizing the left atrial appendage (LAA). This study defined the morphology of the LAA in normal autopsy specimen hearts and considered the implications of these findings for TEE studies.

    Is the left atrial appendage a vestigial structure?
    For long, it was believed that the left atrial appendage (LAA) was a vestigial structure – a structure which apparently did not have any meaningful function in normal life and could be easily obliterated during cardiac surgery without producing any ill effects. Studying the function of LAA could therefore be of hardly any interest.
