Abstract
Primary percutaneous intervention (PCI) in acute ST elevation myocardial infarction (MI) is a preferred way of treatment nowadays. Sometimes it becomes difficult to get good myocardial blood flow during PCI if clot burden is large. In this case of an elderly lady, the use of "Mother and Child Technique" combined with super selective pharmacological intervention is demonstrated to achieve good blood flow when conventional means are not working.
