Percutaneous Intervention of LVAD Outflow Graft Obstruction and Thrombosis

Left ventricular assist devices serve as a salvage therapy for patients with advanced heart failure. Complications such as thrombosis and obstruction can lead to acute device malfunction, posing significant clinical risks. A multidisciplinary approach is crucial for management. Few cases in the literature have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of percutaneous intervention, which holds significant value due to its less invasive nature and minimal risk of morbidity, especially in high-risk surgical patients.
