Intraaortic balloon counterpulsation has become more frequently used in clinical management as a circulatory assistance device. However, many studies 1-6 report complications related to the procedure (table I). The most frequent vascular complications reported are thromboembolism, absence of distal pulse, pain, dissections, ischemia, and even gangrene and amputation of limbs. In addition to the vascular complications, there are infectious ones, all occurring with similar frequency with signs of fever, local infection, and bacteremia. Less frequently, bleeding also occurs. Other less frequent complications, though not so severe, are migration and retention of the balloon. A devastating complication, however, is being reported more frequently, despite its rareness. It is paraplegia associated with intraaortic balloon counterpulsation.
