  • Utility of mechanical rheolysis as an adjunct to rescue angioplasty and platelet inhibition in acute myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock: a case report.

    Lee DP, Lo S, Herity N, Ward M, Yeung AC. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv. 2001; 52 (2): 220-5

    We describe the value of mechanical rheolysis as an adjunct to rescue angioplasty and platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor inhibition in a patient with acute myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock in whom the severity of the intracoronary thrombus burden precluded restoration of antegrade coronary flow by conventional balloon angioplasty and stenting.
