We describe a patient with a HeartMate 3 left ventricular assist device in whom we attempted transcatheter aortic valve implantation for severe aortic regurgitation. The valve migrated into the left ventricle and lodged on the left ventricular assist device inflow cannula. Caution should be exercised when considering the use of transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with an implanted left ventricular assist device, with pure aortic regurgitation.
我们描述了一名植入HeartMate 3左心室辅助装置的患者，我们尝试为其严重主动脉瓣反流进行经导管主动脉瓣植入术。瓣膜移入左心室并卡在左心室辅助装置的流入插管上。对于植入左心室辅助装置且存在单纯主动脉瓣反流的患者，在考虑使用经导管主动脉瓣植入术时应谨慎。
