Many patients with severe cardiac disease can now live for a prolonged period with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs), and some patients will develop noncardiac medical issues that may benefit from surgical intervention. Previous studies have reported a low rate of complications in patients with LVADs undergoing noncardiac surgical procedures. We report the cases of 2 patients with LVADs who underwent total knee arthroplasties for osteoarthritis. Both patients had significant pain relief and improved function; however, management of anticoagulation and bleeding complications was challenging. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
