A Soldier's Story: Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Care

At the age of 24, Sean Dobbs was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy — a condition in which the heart becomes enlarged and cannot pump blood effectively. He later developed end-stage heart failure and needed a heart transplant. UC San Diego Health cardiologist Eric David Adler, MD, implanted a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) that allowed Sean to regain his health as he awaited a donor heart. Cardiothoracic surgeon Victor Pretorius, MBChB, led the transplant team that performed Sean’s lifesaving surgery.
