HeartWare LVAD implantation in a patient with a rare ARVD: Carvajal syndrome.
International Journal of Artificial Organs 2014 July 32
Carvajal syndrome is a variant of Naxos disease characterized by a predominant left ventricular involvement, wooly or curly hair, and palmoplantar keratoderma or similar skin disorders. We describe the clinical and therapeutic course of a 14-year old boy affected by this syndrome, in whom a progressive biventricular failure developed at 13 years of age. The patient was hospitalized in the pediatric department 3 months earlier after the onset of cardiac arrhythmias and he critically worsened with signs and symptoms of biventricular cardiac failure. Over massive inotropic agent infusion, the patient was transferred to our intensive-care-unit in order to be haemodinamically stabilized with a ventricular assist device (VAD) and thereafter transplanted.
