Yamasaki et al. (2016) conducted a case report in Acute type A aortic dissection complicated with malperfusion of the left main coronary artery (n=1). Percutaneous cardiopulmonary support (PCPS) followed by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and ascending aorta replacement with CABG was evaluated on Recovery and hospital discharge. Percutaneous cardiopulmonary support and percutaneous coronary intervention successfully bridged a patient with acute type A aortic dissection and left main coronary malperfusion to surgical repair.
