Aortic Root Thrombus Directly After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation

A 70-year-old female heart failure patient could not be weaned from temporary left ventricular mechanical support with Impella CP (Abiomed Inc, Danvers, MA) after myocardial infarction; therefore, she underwent left ventricular assist device implantation (HeartMate 3; Abbott, Chicago, IL). After une...

description A 70-year-old female heart failure patient could not be weaned from temporary left ventricular mechanical support with Impella CP (Abiomed Inc, Danvers, MA) after myocardial infarction; therefore, she underwent left ventricular assist device implantation (HeartMate 3; Abbott, Chicago, IL). After uneventful surgery, the patient had an early postoperative thrombus in the aortic root, and surgical thrombectomy on extracorporeal circulation was performed on the seventh postoperative day. The patient recovered well and presented in good condition with no neurologic symptoms at the 6-month follow-up visit. Surgical excision of aortic root thrombus is a feasible option even for frail patients with a left ventricular assist device.
