Abstract

Left circumflex coronary artery occluson rarely occurs after mitral valve surgery. The underlying mechanisms, as well as the clinical presentation and severity may vary. No consensus on the best therapeutic strategy exists. We present a case of left circumflex dynamic occlusion after mitral valve replacement, in which the use of intravascular ultrasound helped in clarifying the mechanism of the occlusion and in guiding the percutaneous revascularization.

期刊介绍： Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions is an international journal covering the broad field of cardiovascular diseases. Subject material includes basic and clinical information that is derived from or related to invasive and interventional coronary or peripheral vascular techniques. The journal focuses on material that will be of immediate practical value to physicians providing patient care in the clinical laboratory setting. To accomplish this, the journal publishes Preliminary Reports and Work In Progress articles that complement the traditional Original Studies, Case Reports, and Comprehensive Reviews.
