Introduction: Circulatory assistance from a SynCardia Total Artificial Heart (SynCardia-TAH) is a reliable bridge-to-transplant solution for patients with end-stage biventricular heart failure. Ischemic strokes affect about 10% of patients with a SynCardia-TAH. We report for the first time in the literature two successful thrombectomies to treat the acute phase of ischemic stroke in two patients treated with a SynCardia-TAH in the bridge-to-transplant (BTT). Case report: We follow two patients with circulatory support from a SynCardia-TAH in the bridge-to-transplant for terminal biventricular cardiac failure with ischemic stroke during the support period. An early in-hospital diagnosis enables the completion of a mechanical thrombectomy within the first 6 h of the onset of symptoms. There was no intracranial hemorrhagic complication during or after the procedure and the patients fully recovered from neurological deficits, allowing a successful heart transplant. Conclusion: This case report describes the possibility of treating ischemic strokes under a SynCardia-TAH by mechanical thrombectomy following the same recommendations as for the general population with excellent results and without any hemorrhagic complication during or after the procedure.

A 55-year-old male presented with complete left-sided weakness of the body with a National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) 15 and Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography (ASPECT) score 8 and occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery (MCA) in the M1 segment on Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA). Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) was not performed as symptoms developed at sleep. Mechanical Thrombectomy was performed after 4.5 hours of the symptom onset with recanalization of Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (TICI classification 2b).
