Microaxial Flow Pump Support as a Bridge to Transaxillary TAVI‐In‐TAVI in Cardiogenic Shock

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT A 79‐year‐old man presented with cardiogenic shock due to severe degeneration of a prior transcatheter aortic valve. Temporary mechanical circulatory support with a transvalvular microaxial flow pump was initiated, resulting in rapid stabilization.
