“…IAB has been recommended for patients with obstruction of left coronary branch 165 in mitral insufficiency in a condition of postoperative low output 166 . In patients whose signs of left ventricular dysfunction and tissue hypoperfusion are intense since the beginning, or in where the IAB failed to restore tissue perfusion, the implant of artificial ventricular support must be considered 167,168 .

We report the case of a patient stabilized under extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation after a refractory cardiogenic shock following myocardial infarction. Persistent left ventricular failure required secondary implantation of the left ventricular assist device (LVAD) HeartMate II. LVAD succeeded in the gradual recovery of myocardial contractility, allowing weaning of the device five months after implantation. Simultaneously, the patient beneficiated from coronary revascularization and resumed normal activity. This case emphasizes potential late recoveries after myocardial infarction complicated by left ventricular failure.

Left Ventricular Assist Stand-by for High-Risk Cardiac Surgery

Abstract: High-risk conventional surgery with LVAD stand-by is feasible and seems to be a valuable alternative for heart-transplant candidates.
