Abstract
A long-term mechanical biventricular support by HeartWare HVAS third-generation continuous flow pump (HeartWare, Inc, Miramar, FL, USA) was implanted in a Korean patient with a small chest size for treatment of a refractory end-stage heart failure due to an idiopathic dilative cardiomyopathy. We report our experience with a single patient and the early mid-term follow-up results with such a mechanical ventricular support.
