Long-term hemodynamic support devices were discussed in detail in order to determine the best option (LVAD vs. TAH). If the patient had adequate right ventricular function and a controlled arrhythmia, left ventricular assist device (LVAD) would have been a suitable option. However, both these issues were a problem in this case; therefore, LVAD was not a suitable option. Biventricular assist device (BiVAD)
