摘要
The left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is an implanted mechanical pump that supports circulatory function for patients with advanced heart failure. LVAD survival has continuously improved over the last decade with an increasing number of patients requiring non-cardiac surgeries. We discuss a 77-year-old, LVAD-dependent male with an enlarging, indurated right testicular mass. Radical inguinal orchiectomy confirmed pure seminoma. The case highlights perioperative considerations in this unique cohort of patients.
