The clinical case illustrates a successful treatment outcome achieved through teamwork by the heart team, supporting the efficacy of the VA ECMO pre-percutaneous coronary intervention approach. The careful selection of appropriate candidates and strategic initiation of VA ECMO may play a role in enhancing outcomes for individuals experiencing acute myocardial infarction complicated by challenging cardiogenic shock.
