Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are used in end-stage heart failure. Inadequate positioning of the inflow cannula may necessitate replacement of the LVAD. We present the successful use of a three-dimensional printed model used to optimize surgical planning and allow for simulation and training for the LVAD exchange procedure.
左心室辅助装置(LVADs)用于终末期心力衰竭。流入插管位置不当可能需要更换LVAD。我们展示了成功使用三维打印模型来优化手术规划,并为LVAD更换手术进行模拟和训练。
