Abstract

This report presents an initial experience with the novel Abbott surgical enhancement tools for less invasive HeartMate 3 (Abbott, Chicago, IL) left ventricular assist system implantation. Three new devices are introduced: (1) a mini-apical cuff with (2) a cuff holder and (3) a newly designed coring knife, facilitating access through a left sided minithoracotomy.
