Successful Coronary Stent Retrieval from the Saphenous Vein Graft to Right Coronary Artery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Stent dislodgement and migration is a rare but serious complication of stent usage. For extraction of unexpanded stents different techniques have been described previously. We describe a case which used small baloon catheter for retrieval of a stent from the SVG-RCA.

P Erne [email protected] A60 year old women presented with chest pain to our department. Risk factors for coronary artery disease included hypertension and hypercholesterolaemia. Her coronary angiogram (see panels) showed normal left anterior descending (LAD) and circumflex (CXF) coronary arteries. However, the right coronary artery (RCA) originated from the mid LAD (RCA, wide black ...
متن کاملMajor Leg Wound Complications After Saphenous Vein Harvest for Coronary Revascularization
Background: Major leg wound complications after coronary artery bypass graft procedures are infrequent and few are reported in the litrature.We present our experience in treating 30 patients with major leg wound complications after coronary revascularization procedures. Materials and Methods: A retrospective review of 2100 bypass procedures with saphenous veingraft performed over a 5-years p...

Coronary artery perforation as a result of percutaneous coronary intervention is a rare complication which may result in cardiac tamponade, myocardial infarction and death. Perforation of a saphenous vein graft is unusual and generally requires surgical intervention. We describe a novel percutaneous approach that facilitated the successful management of a potentially catastrophic saphenous vein...

A70-year-old man with exertional angina presented for cardiac catheterization. The past medical history was significant for coronary artery bypass graft surgery in 1984 with placement of a left internal mammary artery (LIMA) graft to the left anterior descending coronary artery and a single saphenous vein graft, sequentially, to 2 obtuse marginal vessels and the posterior descending coronary ar...
متن کاملComplete Fracture of Sirolimus-Eluting Stent in a Saphenous Vein Graft to Left Anterior Descending Artery
Coronary stent fractures have been suggested as a potential new mechanism of restenosis. The mechanical properties of stents were designed not only to prevent vessel recoil, but also to resist the mechanical stress of vessel movement over millions of cardiac cycles. We present a case in which mechanical stress may have contributed to the fracture of a stent implanted in a saphenous vein graft (...
