Abstract
A 50-year-old female patient, presented with mediastinal mass (H/P thymoma) with total occlusion of the right main bronchus. After removal of the mass, sudden dilatation of LV and Lv failure was occurred. High inotropic support was started but hemodynamic instability was found. so IAB was inserted. After initiation of IABP, hemodynamic condition was improved.
Keywords: mediastinal mass, LV failure, IABP support.
