Complete coronary stent fracture (type V) with pseudoaneurysm formation in right coronary artery managed by surgical revascularization-A rare case report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Coronary stent fracture is an uncommon complication of stent implantation. We report a case of 66 yrs old male patient presented with unstable angina who underwent stenting in right coronary artery 3 months ago. Computed Tomography Coronary angiogram revealed complete type V stent fracture with pseudoaneurysm formation in right coronary artery. This was managed by surgical revascularization by off pump coronary artery bypass grafting. We are reporting this case due to rarity of complete coronary stent fracture (type V) and relatively early presentation.

A Rare Case of Complete Stent Fracture, Coronary Arterial Transection, and Pseudoaneurysm Formation Induced by Repeated Stenting
This report describes a rare asymptomatic case of complete stent fracture, coronary arterial transection, and pseudoaneurysm formation in response to repeated stenting. The proximal and distal ends of transected coronary artery were closed, and distal bypass was performed. Coronary arterial transection can occur in patients with repeated stenting as a long-term adverse event.
