AbstractThe development of acute limb ischemia in patients following intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) placement remains a frequent event that presents a significant management challenge. We report two recent cases of this clinical event from our institution, which demonstrate that endovascular therapies may be used to treat acute limb ischemia in this setting without requiring removal of the IABP.(c) 2007 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
