OBJECTIVE Axillary Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) has been increasingly utilized for hemodynamic support in heart failure patients. Vascular complications associated with axillary IABP such as dissection or rupture are relatively rare but not negligible that could negatively affect clinical outcomes. We summarized our experiences. METHODS This is a retrospective study reviewing of all patients receiving an axillary IABP between June 2016 and November 2020. A total of 199 patients underwent percutaneous axillary IABP placement. 6 patients (6/199, 3.0%) were complicated with arterial/aortic dissection or rupture during the procedures or the course of treatment. We described their clinical presentations and outcomes. RESULTS Vascular complications included acute type A aortic dissection in 2 patients, descending aortic rupture in 1 patient, abdominal aortic rupture along with type B aortic dissection in 1 patient, and the localized left subclavian artery dissection in 2 patient. 2 type A aortic dissection cases were surgically treated: 1 with emergent left ventricle assist device and ascending aorta replacement, the other with emergent left ventricle assist device. Emergent endovascular treatment was successfully performed in 2 aortic rupture cases. The left subclavian artery dissection cases were managed medically. The postoperative/treatment course was uneventful in all patients. CONCLUSIONS Percutaneous axillary IABP therapy can cause significant vascular complications. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment would be the key to improve the clinical outcomesv.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D006353	Heart-Assist Devices	Small pumps, often implantable, designed for temporarily assisting the heart, usually the LEFT VENTRICLE, to pump blood. They consist of a pumping chamber and a power source, which may be partially or totally external to the body and activated by electromagnetic motors.

D000784	Aortic Dissection	A tear in the inner layer of the AORTA leading to interstitial HEMORRHAGE, and splitting (dissecting) of the aortic TUNICA MEDIA layer. It typically begins with a tear in the TUNICA INTIMA layer.

D001019	Aortic Rupture	The tearing or bursting of the wall along any portion of the AORTA, such as thoracic or abdominal. It may result from the rupture of an aneurysm or it may be due to TRAUMA.

D012189	Retrospective Studies	Studies used to test etiologic hypotheses in which inferences about an exposure to putative causal factors are derived from data relating to characteristics of persons under study or to events or experiences in their past. The essential feature is that some of the persons under study have the disease or outcome of interest and their characteristics are compared with those of unaffected persons.
