Central aortic valve closure successfully treated aortic insufficiency of the patient with Jarvik 2000 continuous flow left ventricular assist device: a case report.
Journal of Artificial Organs : the Official Journal of the Japanese Society for Artificial Organs 2017 March
Aortic insufficiency (AI) is a significant complication of long-term support of continuous flow left ventricular assist device (CF-LVAD) for patients with end-stage heart failure. A 26-year-old female with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) was diagnosed with dilated phase hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (d-HCM)) and was implanted with Jarvik 2000, for bridge to transplantation. AI gradually developed and surgical intervention was indicated. We performed central aortic valve closure (CAVC) instead of valve replacement 20 months after CF-LVAD implantation. Patient's symptoms dramatically improved postoperatively. This is the first report of CAVC for a patient supported with Jarvik 2000.
