The Computed Tomography:Article Title: Staged left ventricular assist device reimplantation via the left anterior wall approach for a patient with severe pump pocket infection. Article Snippet: Pump pocket infection (PPI) is intractable and can cause lethal complications in patients with left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation.1 It causes systemic bloodstream infection, which is a significant risk factor for cerebrovascular complications.2 If local infection cannot be controlled, device exchange for radical infection control must be considered.3 However, the surgical outcome is unsatisfactory because of an extremely high infection recurrence rate.4 Thus, a multidisciplinary approach is needed for LVAD infection management.. Herein, we report a case of severe PPI that was successfully treated with staged LVAD exchange.. A 49yearold woman with ischemic cardiomyopathy and a history of diabetes mellitus, percutaneous coronary intervention for the left anterior descending artery, aortic valve replacement, and mitral annuloplasty was transferred to our hospital due to advanced heart failure. |
