title: Impella 5.0 support in severe peripheral vascular disease via iliac artery approach.
abstract: Impella has been reported to provide hemodynamic support in cardiogenic shock patients, acute myocardial infarction, and high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention. We are reporting the case of using iliac artery cut down for Impella 5.0 in a high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention for a patient with severe ischemic cardiomyopathy who was not a surgical candidate.
