We describe a case of unilateral pulmonary edema in a patient of acute M.I. with acute M.R. and cardiogenic shock which was managed with an intra-aortic balloon pump, vasodilators, diuretics and proning. Usually, pulmonary edema presenting due to acute mitral regurgitation requires mitral valve repair for resolution of pulmonary edema but in our patient we were able to manage it conservatively without the need for any mechanical circulatory support device like VA- ECMO, LVAD or surgery.
