N2 - Objectives: Evaluation of acute and mid-term outcomes of patientswith ST-elevationmyocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing emergency PCI due to unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) disease. Background: STEMI patients due to ULMCA disease represent a rare, high risk group. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may be the preferred strategy of myocardial revascularization but there are few data about this topic. Methods: We analyzed 30-day and mid-term mortality of 58 patients with STEMI and ULMCA disease as culprit lesion treated in our centre by emergency PCI between 2000 to 2010. Results: Mean age was 67.3 ± 11.5 years. Thirty (51.7%) patients had cardiogenic shock on admission. PCI success was achieved in 54 patients (93.1%). Mean follow-up was 15.8 ± 10.9 months (median 14, range 6-45). Thirty-day and mid-term mortality rates were 39.7% and 44%. Backward binary logistic regression model identified cardiogenic shock at presentation (OR 12.6, 95% CI 2.97-53.6, P <0.001), age ≥75 years (OR 5.9, 95% CI 1.3-26.5, P = 0.019) and post-PCI TIMI flow grade
