Abstract
|
|
|
Intraaortic balloon counterpulsation (IAB) has been shown to prolong survival in the
critically ill cardiac patients. Originally developed for use in the patients with cardiogenic
shock, the indications have been expanded. But despite technical advances, the
complication rate associated with IAB remains high. The most commonly reported
complications include damage to the femoral artery and distal embolization. Other
reported major complications are balloon rupture, limb loss, bleeding, systemic infection
and bowel infarction. We report a patient complicated by ischemic colitis causing
stenosis and intestinal obstruction after IAB insertion.
