Abstract

A 50-year-old male presented with atrial flutter 25 days after heart and kidney transplantation. Rejection was excluded, but he developed severe COVID-19 infection with cardiac allograft dysfunction. Despite continued corticosteroid and tacrolimus therapy, he remained aviremic. Respiratory and myocardial functions recovered after a week of mechanical ventilation. The cardiomyopathy was stress induced. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)

Abstract

Intra-aortic balloon pump via the axillary approach has been increasingly utilized to facilitate physical rehabilitation prior to definitive heart failure therapy. There is a high risk of device fracture with loss of arterial accessibility. Three cases are presented that demonstrate innovative arteriotomy hemostasis techniques for malfunctioning axillary intra-aortic balloon pumps. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.)
