Artificial Organs, EarlyView.Percutaneous femoro‐femoral V‐A ECMO cannulation was associated with more than a two‐fold lower risk of site bleeding and nearly a six‐fold lower risk of infection compared with surgical cut‐down, with no difference in limb ischemia. Absence of distal perfusion catheterization and larger arterial cannula size were additional modifiable ischemia risk ...

Single‐Incision Anterolateral Thoracotomy for LVAD Implantation: A Novel Minimally Invasive Approach
Artificial Organs, EarlyView.A novel single‐incision anterolateral thoracotomy technique enables complete HeartMate 3 implantation without sternotomy, minimizing surgical trauma and accelerating recovery. This minimally invasive approach is feasible, safe, and may represent a new standard in advanced heart failure surgery.

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.14 100 LVAD patients across 21 studies were analyzed. Findings indicated that obese LVAD recipients had lower short‐term mortality and higher risk of infection, thrombosis and right heart failure. There was no difference in long‐term survival between obese and non‐obese patients.
