With the development and improvement of the LVADs, the morbidity and mortality rates are declining and life expectancies increasing, and the number of patients with LVADs requiring non-cardiac surgery is likely to increase. We present the case of a patient with implantable LVAD who underwent laparoscopic right hemicolectomy for ascending colon cancer.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>\n              <jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Case description<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The patient was a 66-year-old man who underwent LVAD implantation as a BTT 3 years prior. He suffered from severe anemia at follow-up, and a colonoscopy revealed ascending colon cancer. The LVAD pump was implanted in the epigastrium. The long C-shaped subfascial driveline tunnel was made, and driveline exit site was located on the left lateral abdominal wall. We assessed the positional relationship between the tumor and the driveline using X-ray and three-dimensional computed tomography (3D CT) images. 3D CT image allowed us to easily identify the location of the driveline, and we determined to perform laparoscopic right hemicolectomy. The port sites were decided upon carefully to avoid the driveline injury, and the driveline was marked on the skin before surgery. There were no adhesions in the abdominal cavity, and both the LVAD and the driveline were observable. The trocars were in nearly the same positions as in a standard laparoscopic right hemicolectomy. During the operation, the LVAD and the driveline did not interfere with the trocars. We successfully completed a standard laparoscopic right hemicolectomy despite hemorrhagic tendency. The patient was discharged without any bleeding complications during the postoperative course.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>\n              <jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Laparoscopic surgery is feasible and safe for patients with LVADs with intensive preoperative simulation and perioperative prevention of infection.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s40792-020-01064-9","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,9]],"date-time":"2020-11-09T06:03:52Z","timestamp":1604901832000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Laparoscopic right hemicolectomy for an ascending colon cancer patient with an implantable left ventricular assist device: a case report"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"6","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2532-5368","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Taiki","family":"Kajiwara","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Takeshi","family":"Naitoh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yusuke","family":"Suzuki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Atsushi","family":"Kohyama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hideaki","family":"Karasawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hideyuki","family":"Suzuki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Masatoshi","family":"Akiyama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshikatsu","family":"Saiki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kazuhiro","family":"Watanabe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shinobu","family":"Ohnuma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Takashi","family":"Kamei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michiaki","family":"Unno","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"1064_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"102","DOI":"10.1007\/s11748-019-01227-y","volume":"68","author":"K Kinugawa","year":"2020","unstructured":"Kinugawa K, Nishimura T, Toda K, Saiki Y, Niinami H, Nunoda S, et al.
