Abstract
We report a case of an 87-year-old female who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for non-ST elevation myocardial infarction while she was being worked up for transcatheter aortic valve procedure. Hemodynamic compromise occurred during the PCI, which could only be mitigated by doing a balloon aortic valvuloplasty and Impella™ insertion. This case report will help in preparedness for any untoward events in patients with aortic stenosis and undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.
