Iatrogenic Aorto-Coronary Dissection Successfully Treated With IVUS Guided Unprotected Left Main Stenting: Case Report and Review of Literature
A 52-year-old male underwent cardiac catheterization for abnormal stress test. Trans-radial coronary angiography revealed a severe proximal left anterior descending artery (LAD) lesion. LAD angioplasty was performed with two drug-eluting stents. This resulted in dissection of the proximal LAD, the circumflex artery and the left main coronary artery (LMCA) extending back into the coronary sinus....
متن کاملSignificant left main stenosis following asymptomatic dissection during coronary arteriography.
The natural history of minimally symptomatic or asymptomatic iatrogenic coronary dissection is not well-defined. While generally considered a serious and life-threatening complication of coronary arteriography, there have been some reported cases of spontaneous resolution without residuals. We describe a case demonstrating that coronary artery dissection, even when initially asymptomatic, may l...
متن کاملImmediate bail-out TAP-stenting for the treatment of iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection involving left main bifurcation
Iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection is a rare but potentially disastrous complication of percutaneous coronary intervention. The left main dissection extending into distal bifurcation involving both the left anterior descending and left circumflex is a complex and vital complication, which is classified as Eshtehardi Type II dissection. We presented a case of iatrogenic left main coronary arter...
متن کاملOperative treatment after iatrogenic left main dissection.
Coronary dissection has a significant morbidity and mortality. The ideal management of acute coronary occlusion is the prompt restoration of the vessel patency to limit the extent and duration of ischemia. In the setting of dissection during percutaneous procedure, the usual approach has been emergency aortocoronary bypass surgery. The authors present a case of a patient with left main dissecti...
متن کاملRapid Spontaneous Coronary Artery Reperfusion Following Severe Bradycardia During Exercise Tolerance Test: A Rare Case Report
The acute occlusion of a coronary artery without the evidence of myocardial infarction might immediately affect both the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease. We present the case with a sudden occlusion of the left main coronary artery without typical chest pain following an exercise tolerance test and rapid spontaneous reperfusion of the left main coronary artery.
