We report the case of a 62-year-old man with a previous mechanical aortic valve prosthesis who was referred for emergent cardiac catheterization after successful resuscitation from an out-of-hospital pulseless electrical activity cardiac arrest. Post-resuscitation, the patient was comatose with arterial blood pressure 60/35 mmHg, and the electrocardiogram showed widespread ST-segment depression and ST-elevation elevation in lead aVR. Mechanical ventilation, inotropic and vasopressor support were initiated during the transfer to a percutaneous coronary intervention-capable hospital. Cardiac fluoroscopy showed pivotal movement of the aortic prosthesis with each heartbeat and severe regurgitation was seen on aortography (Video 1). Prosthesis position in systole (Figure 1A) and diastole (Figure 1B) was demonstrated in individual cinefluoroscopic frames (left anterior oblique view). In diastole, the blood regurgitated into the left ventricular cavity produced a 90◦ clockwise rotation of the aortic prosthesis. Coronary angiography was normal. The patient underwent emergent cardiac
