We report the case of a 43-year-old patient with acute ST-segment elevation anterior myocardial infarction who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. To reduce the duration of ongoing myocardial ischemia, acute reperfusion of the infarcted coronary artery was achieved using an aortocoronary shunt, thereby perfusing the occluded left anterior descending artery. Under the protection of the aortocoronary shunt, the left internal thoracic artery was harvested and was thereafter anastomosed to the left anterior descending artery. The patient had an uneventful postoperative recovery.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007387 Internal Mammary-Coronary Artery Anastomosis Direct myocardial revascularization in which the internal mammary artery is anastomosed to the right coronary artery, circumflex artery, or anterior descending coronary artery. The internal mammary artery is the most frequent choice, especially for a single graft, for coronary artery bypass surgery.

D007423 Intra-Aortic Balloon Pumping Counterpulsation in which a pumping unit synchronized with the patient's electrocardiogram rapidly fills a balloon in the aorta with helium or carbon dioxide in early diastole and evacuates the balloon at the onset of systole. As the balloon inflates, it raises aortic diastolic pressure, and as it deflates, it lowers aortic systolic pressure. The result is a decrease in left ventricular work and increased myocardial and peripheral perfusion.
