Complete percutaneous coronary revascularization: An elegant solution to left ventricular dysfunction caused by severe coronary artery disease

Clin Case Rep. 2024 Aug 5;12(8):e9224. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.9224. eCollection 2024 Aug.

Abstract

With increased complexity in both medical comorbidities and coronary anatomy, the proportion of surgically turndown patients and high-risk PCI will continue to rise. Impella-assisted complex PCI can be performed with high technical success and can improve quality of life, angina score, and potentially left ventricular ejection fraction.

Keywords: LV dysfunction; chronic total occlusion; high‐risk PCI; mechanical support.
