Abstract

Consensus is lacking regarding screening for complications such as ventricular aneurysms after ventricular assist device explant. We report two pediatric patients, status-post explantation, who developed true left ventricular apical aneurysms diagnosed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Imaging also suggested laminated thrombus versus postoperative changes which were treated with antiplatelet therapy.
