Leor Perl on Takayasu Arteritis: Managing Cardiogenic Shock in Complex Aortic Regurgitation

In a clinical presentation for Cardiologia Molinette, Dr. Leor Perl discusses the unique hemodynamic challenges of treating severe aortic regurgitation and cardiogenic shock in patients with Takayasu arteritis.

Dr. Perl presents the case of a young woman with Takayasu arteritis who developed profound cardiogenic shock due to severe aortic regurgitation. He outlines why mechanical circulatory support is particularly complex in these patients and reviews the interventional strategies used to stabilize and treat her. The talk highlights the importance of tailored hemodynamic assessment and individualized decision-making in rare inflammatory vascular diseases.
