Abstract

A two-stage explantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) was performed on 47 year old afro-american gentlemen with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) who was successfully bridged to recovery. After he suffered a stroke caused by a VAD thrombosis with embolisation, the VAD outflow graft was first ligated using minimally-invasive approach. Two months later, the device was explanted and a manufactured titanium plug was placed into the sewing ring. This stepwise procedure might be beneficial in cases of high thromboembolic risk and in patients who suffered a thromboembolic event previously.
