Abstract
The use of Left Ventricular Assist Devices (LVADs) has substantially increased in recent years, being a valid therapeutic option for a growing population of patients with advanced heart failure. A 54 year old male had had the HeartMate 3™ implanted in a prepericardiac location due to end-stage congestive heart failure. We present the angiographic data of our patient.
