Sinus arrest following right coronary artery stent implantation
Sinus arrest rarely occurs during acute myocardial infarction involving the right coronary artery (RCA) and sinus node (SN) artery. We report a rare case of sinus arrest caused by SN artery occlusion following RCA stenting. A 56-year-old woman with a significant history of RCA stenosis with prior bare metal stenting, presented to the emergency department with anginal chest pain. Initial work up...
متن کامل[Single coronary artery: angioplasty with stent implantation].
We report the case of a rare anomaly of the right coronary artery originated from the middle third of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery with a proximal atheromatous obstructive lesion immediately before the emergence of the right coronary artery (RCA). The patient underwent successful angioplasty with stent implantation in the left anterior descending coronary artery. Only 7 ca...
متن کاملEmergency polytetrafluoroethylene-covered stent implantation to treat right coronary artery perforation during percutaneous coronary intervention.
Coronary artery perforations are life-threatening complications with a poor outcome. Historically, if the perforation was not controlled using conservative methods such as prolonged balloon inflation and protamine administration, emergency cardiac surgery has been performed. However, several percutaneous methods including covered stents and embolization materials have emerged as therapeutic...
متن کاملAdjunctive stent implantation following directional coronary atherectomy in patients with coronary artery disease.
OBJECTIVES This prospective case-control study evaluated the acute and long-term results of stent implantation preceded by debulking of the plaque by means of directional coronary atherectomy. BACKGROUND In comparison with balloon angioplasty, intracoronary stenting produces a larger luminal diameter, maintains artery patency and reduces the incidence of restenosis. Optimal stent deployment i...
متن کاملFatal Delayed Coronary Artery Perforation After Coronary Stent Implantation
Most type I and II perforations are predominately caused by hydrophilic and stiff wires, often presented in the delayed form, and do not require pericardial drainage or surgical interventions. However, we report a type III delayed coronary artery perforation at the site of stent implantation after intervention without any evidence of immediate perforations. To the best of our knowledge, this is...
