LOVE - axial (panel a), − sagittal (panel b), and - coronal (panel c) reformations of a 83-year-old female patient who underwent cardiac CTA 9 months after implantation of the ACP® LAA occlusion device. Panels a, b and, c demonstrate no peri-device leak. Panel b shows incomplete lobe coverage with a small residual LAA lobe. The uncovered LAA lobe is seen between the angle of the sealing part of the ACP device (proximal disk) and the plane of the LAA ostium (angle in between red lines, marked by white arrow). The contrast filling of the LAA in combination with the clear absence of a peri-device leak reflects indirectly in-complete endothelialization of the ACP® LAA occlusion device
