Severe functional mitral regurgitation in acute myocardial infarction may be one of the main reasons for cardiogenic shock. According to data from the SHOCK registry, this happens in 6.9% of cases of acute myocardial infarction complicated by heart failure. The only way to significantly improve the prognosis is the use of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) and urgent coronary revascularization. We describe a patient with acute myocardial infarction without ST-segment elevation, complicated by severe mitral regurgitation, successfully treated with IABP and percutaneous coronary intervention of the infarct-related coronary artery.
