Abstract
Aortic insufficiency occurs frequently in patients who receive continuous-flow support with a HMII LVAD, and may be associated with aortic root diameter enlargement and aortic valve opening. These findings warrant a more thorough preoperative patient evaluation and additional studies to investigate the factors, that may be associated with AI development.
