A Case of Iatrogenic Intra-Stent Coronary Dissection after Biolimus-Eluting Stent Deployment in the Left Main Coronary Artery
نویسندگان
چکیده
We encountered a case of an iatrogenic intra-stent coronary dissection at the guiding catheter engagement in 6-month follow-up angiography after a biolimuseluting stent implantation in the left main coronary artery (LMCA). The optical coherence tomography revealed peeling of the thin neointima inside the stent and thrombus formation. We made a reentry through the dissected lumen with the guide wire and dilated with balloon, which provided sufficient lumen and completion of the bail-out without additional stenting. Since the neointima is immature and fragile, we should take care for the catheter engagement to the LMCA previously treated with the drug-eluting stent.

Association of G22A variant of Adenosine Deaminase gene with coronary in-stent restenosis in coronary artery patients receiving drug-eluting stent
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 ...

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....

A 63-year-old male was admitted with subacute anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Cardiac catheterization revealed a subtotal occlusion in the proximal and middle part of left anterior descending coronary artery. Subacute stent thrombosis (SAT) occurred recurrently until the last stent deployment solved the problem of the uncovered artery and distal-stent edge dissection. The patient's...

Case presentation: A 56-year-old man presented to the hospital with chest pain and a non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Thrombotic plaque rupture in the left anterior descending coronary artery was treated with an everolimus-eluting stent. After stent deployment, angiography demonstrated the presence of a hazy opacity at the distal edge of the stent, and there was concern about a p...

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of four-time inflation of the stent balloon at nominal pressure on optimal stent expansion in resistant lesions. Materials and Methods: This interventional study was conducted on 39 patients with coronary artery lesions, in whom Zotarolimus-eluting stents (N=20), Paclitaxel-eluting stents (N=11) and other stents (N=8) were deployed four tim...
