Coronary perforation and simultaneous donor-vessel stent thrombosis during percutaneous coronary intervention

Abstract

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusions (CTOs) is challenging. The complexity of the lesions increases the risk of procedure-related complications. Here, we report a case of a patient who presented with simultaneous donor-vessel stent thrombosis and contained coronary perforation of the septal collateral artery during total occlusion PCI.
