Four Factor Prothrombin Complex Concentrate for Anticoagulation Reversal in an LVAS Patient Undergoing Robotic Prostatectomy: A Case Report

2018 
Recipients of left ventricular assist system (LVAS) require long-term anticoagulation with warfarin to prevent thromboembolic complications. We discuss a successful case of the use of four factor prothrombin complex concentrate (4F-PCC) for temporary warfarin reversal in a patient with a HeartMate 3 LVAS requiring robotic assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy.
