A 62-year-old man with a prior history of Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) presented in cardiogenic shock. A percutaneous left femoral Impella CP® Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) was placed with modest improvement in hemodynamics. The LVAD was upgraded to an open right transaxillary Impella 5.0® with hemodynamic stabilization. Cardiacfunction was assessed with serial echocardiography demonstrating persistent severe left ventricular dysfunction. In view of previous CABG with patent Left Internal Mammary Artery (LIMA) graft the decision was made to place a HeartMate 3® LVAD via left thoracotomy with LV apical inflow and descending aortic outflow. This approach was completed without the need for Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB). The postoperative course was uneventful and discharge to a rehabilitation center occurred on the ninth postoperative day.
