Evaluation of coronary flow is useful in patients with left coronary cusp thrombus formation after left ventricular assist device implantation

Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is essential for patients with severe heart failure, but there is a risk of thrombus formation on the aortic root and cusps, leading to coronary artery occlusion. Even with the narrowing of the echo-window due to LVAD, careful observation of coronary flow by tra...

description Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is essential for patients with severe heart failure, but there is a risk of thrombus formation on the aortic root and cusps, leading to coronary artery occlusion. Even with the narrowing of the echo-window due to LVAD, careful observation of coronary flow by transthoracic echocardiography can evaluate the patency of coronary flow non-invasively and immediately.
