Abstract

A 72-year-old female patient underwent left atrial appendage closure. During recapture of the occlusion device, transient inversion of the appendageal wall occurred. We describe the mechanism with real-time imaging and share our experience of handling this situation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of this unique recapture complication.
