Implante Percutâneo de Válvula Aórtica Auxiliada pela Oxigenação por Membrana Extracorpórea para Tratamento de Estenose Aórtica com Choque Cardiogênico

Introduction Aortic stenosis is a common heart valve disease, mostly caused by degenerative aortic valve disease in the elderly. Aortic stenosis obstructs the forward flow of the left ventricle to the aorta, leading to a pressure differential between the left ventricle and the aorta and increased left ventricular pressure secondary to left ventricular hypertrophy. As the disease progresses, it leads to left ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction and myocardial ischemia due to decreased coronary blood flow. However, cardiogenic shock secondary [...]
