Successful coronary stent retrieval from the ascending aorta using a gooseneck snare kit

چکیده
Coronary stent dislodgement is a rare complication of percutaneous coronary intervention. We report a case of stent dislodgement in the ascending thoracic aorta. The stent was mechanically distorted in the left circumflex artery (LCX) while being delivered to the proximal LCX lesion. The balloon catheter was withdrawn, but the stent with the guide wire was remained in the ascending thoracic aorta. The stent was unable to be retrieved into the guide catheter, as it was distorted. A goose neck snare was used successfully to catch the stent in the ascending thoracic aorta and retrieved the stent externally via the arterial sheath.

Successful Retrieval of Intravascular Stent Remnants With a Combination of Rotational Atherectomy and a Gooseneck Snare
Stent migration from the delivery balloon catheter is a rare but serious complication during percutaneous coronary intervention, particularly when a part of the stent stretches into the aorta. We report an unusual case of stent migration treated with a combination of a gooseneck snare and rotablation. A part of the stent was overstretched and unrolled into the aorta and the rest of the stent re...
متن کاملThe successful retrieval of a broken guide wire from the diagonal branch of the left anterior descending coronary artery complicated by partial stent rolling
Percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) are relatively safe, and the complication rate is low in comparison to cardiac surgery revascularization. The incidence of broken or retained PCI equipment is about 0.1–0.8% [1]. We report a successful retrieval of a fractured guide wire by using a percutaneous catheter Amplatz GooseNeck Snare and Microsnare Kit (Covidien, Plymouth, USA), which was com...
متن کاملRetrieval of dislodged coronary stent from left renal artery by gooseneck snare☆
A rapamycin-eluting stent was dislodged during attempt of implantation at the proximal right coronary artery, which was found by fluoroscopy to have migrated into the anterior trunk of the left renal artery. We chose a 5 mm diameter Amplatz gooseneck snare and successfully retrieved the lost stent from the lodging vessel.

The effectiveness of pancreatic stents for prevention of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pancreatitis is widely recognized [1]. However, proximal migration of a pancreatic stent is occasionally encountered, potentially necessitating surgical intervention [2,3]. A gooseneck snare (Amplatz GooseNeck Microsnare Kit; Covidien, Irvine, California, USA), which was originall...
متن کاملEndoscopic removal of a proximally migrated biliary stent using a novel gooseneck snare: the "EndoCowboy".
Proximal migration often occurs as an adverse event of biliary stent placement, with a reported migration rate of 3.1%– 4.9% [1]. Although various techniques have been reported for endoscopic removal of proximally migrated biliary stents, the procedure is still technically demanding and time-consuming, and occasionally unsuccessful [2–4]. We describe a useful technique for endoscopic removal of...
