Abstract
Management of mild to moderate aortic insufficiency in patients with a left ventricular assist device remains controversial. We report 3 patients with aortic insufficiency and pulsatile left ventricular assist devices treated with a central aortic valve coapting suture. Two of the repairs have been durable for more than 1 year and aspirin appears to be sufficient anticoagulation.
