Abstract

Ventral hernias following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) placement are rare. With the improvement in technology, and miniaturization of devices associated with intrapericardial placement, these complications have largely been abolished. The mere presence of a large ventral hernia should not exclude recipients from being candidates for orthotopic heart transplantation. © Indian Association of Cardiovascular-Thoracic Surgeons 2022.
