Totally percutaneous endovascular repair of HeartMate 3 ventricular assistive device outflow graft pseudoaneurysm

The rate of heart failure and subsequent placement of left ventricular assistive devices (LVADs) has been increasing. The extra-anatomic placement of the LVAD and outflow graft presents a challenging problem for repair when complications arise. The present report describes a case of a 63-year-old ma...

Sumario:The rate of heart failure and subsequent placement of left ventricular assistive devices (LVADs) has been increasing. The extra-anatomic placement of the LVAD and outflow graft presents a challenging problem for repair when complications arise. The present report describes a case of a 63-year-old man who had presented with acute pseudoaneurysm of the outflow graft of his recently placed LVAD. Percutaneous access of the left subclavian artery and percutaneous, transthoracic access of the outflow graft was obtained to allow for sheath placement and stent deployment within the outflow graft. The patient underwent successful endovascular repair of the defect without complications.
