Rupture and Spontaneous Sealing of a Coronary Aneurysm After Deployment of Drug-Eluting Stent
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lesions with coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) can become complicated during percutaneous coronary intervention. Here, we report a case of a 78-year-old man who developed a rupture, and spontaneous sealing of the CAA occurred after stent implantation, as shown by computed tomography coronary angiography.

Overview of Intracoronary Brachytherapy for in-Stent Restenosis of a Drug-Eluting Stent
Percutaneous coronary intervention with stenting is considered recently as the most common procedure for the treatment of symptomatic coronary. The article reviewed 41 studies published during 1997-2019 on intracoronary brachytherapy for in-stent restenosis of a drug-eluting stent. Intracoronary radiation therapy was finally confirmed in the setting of in-stent restenosis using as adjunctive th...
متن کاملDiagnosis and Treatment of Spontaneous Coronary Artery Pseudoaneurysm
Spontaneous coronary artery pseudoaneurysm (PSA, false aneurysm) is an extremely rare occurrence with the precise incidence unknown. It is defined as an outwardly bulging monolayer or double layer within the coronary artery that lacks all 3 layers (intima, media, and adventitia) of the arterial wall. Coronary PSA commonly occurs from arterial dissection or perforation induced by catheter interv...

In-stent restenosis (ISR) is regarded as the main problem in the utilization of stents in the treatment of coronary artery atherosclerotic stenosis in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This study investigated the possible role of the G22A variant of the Adenosine Deaminase gene (ADA) in the development of ISR. In this study, 91 patients who underwent PCI were divided into two groups of ...

Introduction of Drug-Eluting Stent (DES) proved to be an important step forward in reducing rates of restenosis and target lesion revascularization after percutaneous coronary intervention, but at the same time potentially causing serious complications. One of the rare complications of DES is coronary artery aneurysm. Coronary Artery Aneurysm (CAA), defined as localized dilatation of the corona...
متن کاملAn Infected Drug-Eluting Stented Coronary Aneurysm Forming Intracardiac Fistula
Many cardiologists have usually operated percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary artery disease practically. Sometimes, complications following stent implantation rarely include thrombosis, rupture, sepsis and infected coronary aneurysm [Baddour, 2004; Berkalp, 1999]. Particularly, infected coronary aneurysm causes fatal outcome. In addition to contamination at the time of cathete...
