Coronary artery dissection and perforation complicating percutaneous coronary intervention.
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is widely utilized in the treatment of symptomatic coronary artery disease. Despite its numerous benefits, serious and potentially life-threatening complications of PCI can occur, including iatrogenic coronary artery dissection and perforation. The incidence of these complications has been augmented by the development of coronary interventional devices i...
متن کاملPercutaneous Coronary Intervention for Chronic Total Occlusions
I mpasses are common in everyday life. When they occur in coronary arteries as chronic total occlusions (CTOs), they may be difficult to treat. Successful treatment of CTOs sometimes requires a nonconformist approach based on “negative thinking,” which is described in philosophical circles as the mindset that “negates” the possibility of failure and replaces it with the potentiality of success ...
متن کاملChronic total coronary occlusion percutaneous intervention.
Chronic total coronary occlusions (CTO) are encountered frequently, found in up to 50% of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) referred for elective angiography. Treatment strategy for an individual patient is often changed on the basis of the presence or absence of a CTO (1). Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of CTO remains challenging, with observed success rates that are signif...
متن کاملCoronary Perforation Complicating Percutaneous Coronary Intervention – A Case Illustration and Review
Coronary perforation is a potentially fatal complication during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Reports have shown that it occurs in 0.2 to 0.6% of all patients undergoing the procedures. [1-3] Though the frequency of coronary perforation is low, it is a serious and potentially life-threatening situation that warrants prompt recognition and management. Here we illustrate a case of cor...
متن کاملTreatment for Type IV Coronary Perforation during Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
We report the case of a 61-year-od male, hospitalized for unstable angina. Coronary angiography showed a severe lesion in the middle third of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Percutaneous coronary intervention was performed with stent implantation. Coronary rupture was observed with contrast spilling to the left ventricle (type IV coronary perforation) immediately after balloon pos...
