Thromboembolic events post left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) implantation remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Mechanical thrombectomy for the treatment of pediatric intracranial thromboembolic events have been reported in LVADs, but never following HeartMate 3 (HM3) implantation. We present the case of an 8-year-old, 26.5 kg male with dilated cardiomyopathy and decompensated heart failure who presented with extensive intracranial thromboembolism in the early postoperative period following HM3 implantation and underwent successful mechanical thrombectomy with a favorable neurological outcome.
