摘要

•The distance from LAA ostium to the first bend of the LAA is a new independent predictor of ischemic stroke in AF patients.•The greater distance from left atrium appendage ostium to the first bend is associated with a higher risk of stroke.•This parameter may help to improve the performance of CHA2DS2-VASc score in assessing the stroke risk in population with AF.•LAA morphology is not independently associated with stroke risk.
