Kumagai et al. (2025) conducted a case report in Unstable angina (n=1). Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) removal was evaluated on Hemodynamic improvement and resolution of SAM-induced mitral regurgitation. Removal of the intra-aortic balloon pump improved hemodynamics and resolved systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve in a patient undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.
