Clinical Information
Relevant Clinical History and Physical Exam
65 years maleCRF, on dialysis regularlyAwaiting renal transplantTypical angina symptomsCTCA triple vessels disease with high calcium scoreCoronary angiogram with left main disease , both LAD and LCX severe diseases, RCA CTOHeart team approach and explained to patient the choice of bypass or PCI with LVAD like impella supportAdvised by renal physician that transfusion with bypass may affect the future transplant of kidneyTherefore, opt for PCI with impella support

Relevant Test Results Prior to Catheterization
Renal function is not a problem because regular dialysisThe case was done on the day before dialysisLoaded with Clopidogrel
Relevant Catheterization Findings
Right and left femoral approachImpella was implanted successfully, and running smoothly with good haemodynamic support7F EBU guiding catheterWires both LAD and LCX coronariesPre-dilated the lesions with simple balloon ,cutting balloon, and lithotripsy the severe calcified lesions and then IVUS the lesionsStents to LAD and LCX and left main successfullyResults confirmed by IVUS Impella removed after the OT and patient was fineAngina free after one yearNo new kidney available for transplant
