ISLAA 2017 is a multispecialty cardiovascular educational symposium on the frontier science of left atrial appendage (LAA).
This topic is of tremendous interest in the practice of cardiovascular care. Over two days, the symposium will offer very informative presentations on the anatomy, physiology and pathological aspects of the left atrial appendage along with old and new therapeutic strategies of stroke prophylaxis including cardiac devices for LAA exclusion. Presenting will be the leaders in the field with a great depth of practical expertise in the science from across the world.
ISLAA 2017 will take place March 3-4, 2017, in Austin, TX. Register here.
