Summary
Surgical amputation of the left atrial appendage (LAA) is an established intervention during surgical atrial fibrillation (AF) therapy. However, its effects on the endocrine function of the left atrium are unclear. This study aims to quantify the serum levels of natriuretic peptides in patients who undergo concomitant surgical AF ablation with or without LAA amputation.
