Abstract

We present the case of patient with ST elevation myocardial infarction in cardiogenic shock with primary percutaneous coronary intervention of Left anterior descending coronary artery and Left main coronary artery with staged complex procedure on Left anterior descending/Diagonal branch bifurcation in Culotte manner. This case shows that “the simpler, the better” approach of only infarct related artery revascularization may be applied in acute patients with cardiogenic shock and optimal clinical and hemodynamic response on revascularization and intra-aortic balloon pump. But, complete revascularization should be done in staged procedure and later, a control coronary angiography with intravascular ultrasound assistance is mandatory.
