Giant cell myocarditis masquerading as orbital myositis with a rapid, fulminant course necessitating mechanical support and heart transplantation. [PDF]
Giant cell myocarditis (GCM), a rapidly progressive inflammation of the myocardium, is associated with fulminant heart failure, refractory ventricular arrhythmias, and conduction system abnormalities.

Impella CP to Impella 5.5 Uninterrupted Upgrade Using a Double Device Technique
For the first time, we present a novel technique that enables the exchange of the Impella CP (Abiomed Inc., Danvers, Massachusetts, USA) to the Impella 5.5 (Abiomed Inc.) with no interruption of mechanical support in patients with minimal left ventricular reserve.

Impella insertion for residual aortic dissection [PDF]
Acute aortic dissection with coronary malperfusion is a life-threatening disease, resulting in demanding postoperative management. We report a successful insertion of percutaneous heart pump Impella through the intact true lumen in a patient with residual aortic dissection after the graft replacement and its recovery from the post-cardiotomy ...

Impella 5.0 supported oncological surgery as bridge to LVAD
We describe the case of a 58‐year‐old man presenting with myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock, treated with Impella CP which was escalated to an axillary 5.0 due to lack of cardiac recovery.

Surgical embolectomy for acute massive pulmonary embolism: state of the art [PDF]
Massive pulmonary embolism (PE) is a severe condition that can potentially lead to death caused by right ventricular (RV) failure and the consequent cardiogenic shock.

Short‐term outcomes of heart transplant patients bridged with Impella 5.5 ventricular assist device
Aims We sought to investigate the outcomes of heart transplant patients supported with Impella 5.5 temporary mechanical circulatory support. Methods and results Patient demographics, perioperative data, hospital timeline, and haemodynamic parameters were
