Transient Ischemic Attack Secondary to Device-Related Thrombus After Left Atrial Appendage Closure.

The patient is an 84-year-old female with a significant past medical history of traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, bleeding peptic ulcer disease, permanent atrial fibrillation status post percutaneous left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) initially admitted to the hospital secondary to expressive aphasia. The patient was found to have a transient ischemic attack (TIA). A transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) showed a thrombus on the watchman device (WD).

Bilateral Renal Hypoperfusion Following Motor Vehicle Accident.

Renal hypoperfusion noted on abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan without any underlying comorbid condition is a rare finding. Most reported cases of renal hypoperfusion have an association with an underlying cardioembolic problem, such as atrial fibrillation, endocarditis, cardiomyopathies, or artificial valve thrombi. We present a case of transient renal hypoperfusion evident on abdominal CT scan following blunt trauma.
