Abstract
Patient-tailored silicone plug for HeartMate 3™ left ventricular assist device explantation in two successive males proceeded successfully. Given medical therapeutic advancements, FDA-approved plug systems designed by LVAD manufacturers themselves will be necessary for the near future to provide a safe and simple device explantation alternative that fulfills all regulatory standards.
