Abstract

There is very limited experience with simulated virtual implantation of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) to assess device fitness in pediatric patients. In this clinical vignette, we report the case of a 9-year-old male patient with dilated cardiomyopathy who underwent successful placement of an LVAD after virtual simulated implantation was performed. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
