Abstract

Progressive coronary artery disease and recurrent symptoms developed in a 57-year-old man. Nine years earlier he had undergone coronary artery bypass grafting and was supported with a centrifugal left ventricular assist device. He underwent redo coronary artery bypass and again required left ventricular assistance. The patient recovered and was discharged on the 15th postoperative day. He is doing well 1 year after operation and has good left ventricular function.
