Thus, several devices, implanted surgically or percutaneously, have been developed to support a tenuous right ventricle. We present a case of severe hemolysis secondary to thrombus formation on the tip of a caged-tip outflow cannula in a patient with surgically implanted CentriMag (Abbott, Chicago, IL) right ventricular assist device (RVAD) support.Case ReportA 61-year-old female with a history of ischemic cardiomyopathy was transferred from an outside affiliated hospital for advanced heart failure treatment. She developed severe right ventricular failure subsequent to HeartMate 3 (Abbott, Chicago, IL) implantation through median sternotomy at the outside affiliated hospital. Central RVAD support was established with inflow to the right atrium and outflow to the main pulmonary artery (mPA) using a CentriMag circuit at the outside affiliated hospital. On admission to our institution, RVAD speed was 3500 revolutions per minute with flow of 3.5 liters per minute. Left ventricular assist device speed was 5300 revolutions per minute with flow of 4.1 liters per minute and pulsatility index of 5.0. The patient was hemodynamically stable without signs of volume overload. Systemic heparin produced anticoagulation in therapeutic range with anti-Xa level consistently between 0.4 and 0.6 IU/L. LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) level was 886 IU/L.One week after admission to our institution, RVAD flow abruptly decreased without revolutions per minute changes. Left ventricular assist device power and flow remained unchanged. RVAD speed was increased to 4300 revolutions per minute to maintain 4.1 liters per minute. LDH spiked to 1781 IU/L, leading to suspicion of hemolysis due to thrombosis of the RVAD inflow or outflow cannula. Contrast computed tomography demonstrated potential filling defects around the RVAD outflow cannula (Figure [A]). LDH jumped further to 4107 IU/L.Download figureDownload PowerPointFigure.

RVAD indicates right ventricular assist device.The patient was taken to the operating room for mediastinal exploration. The patient was placed on cardiopulmonary bypass. Right atriotomy revealed a patent 32F malleable RVAD inflow cannula. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiogram revealed a mass in the mPA (Figure [B], Movie in the Data Supplement). The mPA was incised, and the RVAD outflow cannula was gently removed. Gross examination demonstrated a 2.0 cm×1.7 cm×0.4 cm mass at the tip of the cannula with near occlusion of the efflux ports (Figure [C]). By removing the clot, the cannula was confirmed to be a 24F Soft-Flow (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN) arterial cannula, which has a caged tip (Figure [D]). The RVAD circuit was exchanged with implantation of a new 24F CentriMag end-hole RVAD outflow cannula. LDH rapidly normalized with resumption of adequate biventricular support.SummaryWe present an unusual cause of severe hemolysis due to RVAD outflow cannula thrombus formation in a patient supported with HeartMate 3 left ventricular assist device and CentriMag RVAD. Severe hemolysis with high-hemocompatibility mechanical circulatory support device, such as the CentriMag or HeartMate 3, is rare.2 Caged tip outflow cannulae may increase the risk of thrombus formation in mid-term to long-term mechanical circulatory support. Other surgeons at our institution have observed this complication with use of caged-tip outflow cannulae in the mPA. Data demonstrate that caged-tip cannulae dampen flow against the arterial wall, which may protect against atheroemboli formation when placed in the aorta.3 However, this effect is likely trivial with regard to pulmonary artery cannulation due to low atherosclerotic burden. Since the venous system has slower flow and may contain debris from the lower extremities or indwelling catheters that could lodge in the caged-tip, our institution preferably uses end-hole catheters as RVAD outflow in the mPA.4Nonstandard Abbreviations and AcronymsLDHlactate dehydrogenasemPAmain pulmonary arteryRVADright ventricular assist deviceSources of FundingNone.Disclosures None.FootnotesThis article was sent to Daniel Burkhoff, MD, PhD, Guest Editor, for review by expert referees, editorial decision, and final disposition.The Data Supplement is available at https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/suppl/10.1161/CIRCHEARTFAILURE.120.007312.For Sources of Funding and Disclosures, see page 154.Correspondence to: Masashi Kawabori, MD, 800 Washington St, Boston, MA 02111.
