摘要
We report a case of accidental intraperitoneal tunneling of the driveline of a left ventricular assist device, which was detected at time of pump exchange. The driveline was completely wrapped with the greater omentum. This technical mistake made during the original left ventricular assist device implantation enabled the patient to remain free from any driveline or pump infection for 4 years and 1 month.
