Sumario: | This report describes the case of a 64-year-old man who presented with acute coronary syndrome, depressed left ventricular function, and triple vessel disease on angiogram. The patient refused surgery and underwent high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention through the Impella sheath (Abiomed, Danvers, MA). This is one of the first known cases of single-access protected percutaneous coronary intervention, an innovative technique that brings into consideration the importance of dual vascular access via the Impella sheath. |
