Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation in Pediatric Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy with Advanced Heart Failure: A Single-Center Study

2026-04-14

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Objective Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a male-predominant childhood-onset disease with progressive myopathy and cardiomyopathy, carries a > 30% 2-year mortality in advanced heart failure (HF) despite standard therapies. While left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) improve adult HF outcomes, pediatric DMD-LVAD data remain scarce, warranting further investigation of short-to mediu...
