Abstract
ABSTRACT
Migration and embolization of a deployed stent is a rare complication of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) and can result in serious and potentially life-threatening complications. There are many reports of intracoronary stent entrapment, stripping, and dislodgement during PCI, however, only a few reports about migration. We report a rare case of migration of the left main coronary stent into the aortic root, which happened 5 months after the procedure and was treated by its partial removal through aortotomy along with surgical revascularization. The patient was discharged 5 days later, after an uneventful hospital stay.
期刊介绍:
Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia (ACA) is the official journal of the Indian Association of Cardiovascular Thoracic Anaesthesiologists. The journal is indexed with PubMed/MEDLINE, Excerpta Medica/EMBASE, IndMed and MedInd. The journal’s full text is online at www.annals.in. With the aim of faster and better dissemination of knowledge, we will be publishing articles ‘Ahead of Print’ immediately on acceptance. In addition, the journal would allow free access (Open Access) to its contents, which is likely to attract more readers and citations to articles published in ACA. Authors do not have to pay for submission, processing or publication of articles in ACA.
