There have been several reports of paraplegia after intraaortic balloon counterpulsation in the surgical literature. In each instance, the paraplegia occurred during the period of counterpulsation support. We describe a patient in whom late paraplegia occurred three days after the removal of an intraaortic balloon catheter.
