We developed a new side-holed shunt sheath for inserting intraaortic balloon pumps to maintain lower limb perfusion in patients with stenotic and tortuous aortoiliac arteries. This sheath has a large internal diameter and several side holes, which act as an internal shunt. It was useful and effective in 11 patients with severe aortoiliac occlusive lesions who required assistance by intraaortic balloon pumping.
