Abstract:
:Pre-infarction angina, in the absence of coronary artery disease, was found in a 62 year-old man with severe calcific aortic stenosis. After application of intraaortic balloon pump counter-pulsation, the condition was stabilized, and coronary arteriograms were safely carried out. Interestingly, an elevated right atrial and right ventricular end-diastolic pressure with an associated Bernheim's effect was demonstrated by cardiac catheterization. The hemodynamics of the right heart returned to normal after surgical correction of the aortic stenosis. The clinical indications for intra-aortic balloon pump counterpulsation in this setting are discussed.
