[A successful case report of a patient who had severe aortic stenosis with cardiac arrest: bridge use of percutaneous cardiopulmonary support system (PCPS)].
A 62-year-old female with chronic renal failure was transferred to our unit for the purpose of surgical treatment. During hemodialysis, cardiac arrest occurred suddenly. Cardiac resuscitation was not effective, necessitating PCPS. She successfully underwent an emergent aortic valve replacement. She had no brain damage and was discharged on foot on the 45th postoperative day.
