Explantation of a CircuLite left ventricular assist device without removal of the inflow cannula: how to do it?

ABSTRACT: As the incidence of heart failure rises and given the shortage of donor organs, left ventricular assist device implantation offers a viable therapy in patients with end-stage heart disease. The CircuLite Synergy™ device is a less invasive support device for Intermacs class 4 heart failure patients. We report the first case of successful weaning from the CircuLite Synergy™ pump and propose our surgical technique to explant the device while leaving the inflow cannula in situ.
