Abstract
A technique of transthoracic intraaortic balloon pump insertion and a clinical experience with 14 patients is reported. The technique of transthoracic intraaortic balloon pump insertion can be done in a rapid and atraumatic fashion. A short prosthetic graft is used, and intraaortic balloon pump removal does not require resternotomy. The technique is a safe alternative in postcardiotomy failure patients with inadequate peripheral arterial access.
