Successful percutaneous management of extensive iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection complicating primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI): A case report

Abstract

Iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection is a scarcely reported complication of cardiac catheterization, which can be fatal if not managed promptly. We present a case of extensive aortocoronary dissection extending into aortic arch in a patient undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of right coronary artery (RCA) and its successful percutaneous management.
