Abstract
- A 37-year-old man was referred for consideration of percutaneous decommissioning of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). Following careful hemodynamic monitoring during pump turn-down and temporary outflow graft occlusion, the LVAD was permanently decommissioned by using a vascular plug to induce thrombosis of the outflow graft. ( Level of Difficulty: Advanced. ).<br />Competing Interests: The authors have reported that they have no relationships relevant to the contents of this paper to disclose.<br /> (© 2022 Published by Elsevier on behalf of the American College of Cardiology Foundation.)
