Copyright policy )Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in a patient in cardiogenic shock due to recent anterior wall MI with history of prior inferior wall MI 15 days back.
Extensive damage of the myocardium following an acute myocardial infarction usually causes cardiogenic shock. A 66-year-old male patient was treated successfully by primary percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) following an acute anterior wall myocardial infarction with prior moderate LV systolic dysfunction and developing cardiogenic shock with intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP), ventilator support and support with four inotropic drugs in full dosage.
