Precordial ST-Segment Elevation Caused by Proximal Occlusion of a Non-Dominant Right Coronary Artery.
UNLABELLED For patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, primary percutaneous coronary intervention to the culprit lesion via electrocardiographic guidance is essential. We herein report the rare case of a 49-year-old man who presented with ST-segment elevation in the precordial leads, while coronary angiography results indicated total occlusion of the proximal non-dominant righ...
متن کاملProximal complete occlusion of right coronary artery presenting with precordial ST-segment elevation
BACKGROUND It is well known that cardiologists empirically judge the culprit lesion of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) according to the corresponding electrocardiographic leads. However, In addition to the obstruction of left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery, rare cases with the occlusion of proximal right coronary artery (RCA) and/or isolated right ventricular...
متن کاملPercutaneous coronary intervention in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
The culprit lesion in ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is usually occluded, thrombotic, and subject to vasospasm. These factors can make adequate sizing and deployment of stents in STEMI more challenging than in other clinical settings. Patients with STEMI are at high risk of adverse cardiac outcomes that may be improved with more complete stent apposition and expansion. These...
متن کاملDouble stent loss during multivessel percutaneous coronary intervention in non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome
The following description presents a case of a 75-year-old female patient with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome in whom there occurred an infrequent complication of percutaneous coronary angioplasty: uncontrolled intracoronary stent displacement from a balloon catheter. During the attempt to retrieve the device using the "small-balloon" technique, further slippage of the stent f...
متن کاملNon-culprit coronary artery percutaneous coronary intervention during acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: insights from the APEX-AMI trial.
AIMS To examine the incidence of and propensity for non-culprit interventions performed at the time of the primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and its association with 90-day outcomes. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined the incidence, propensity for, and associated 90-day outcomes following non-culprit interventions performed at the time of primary PCI among ST-elevation myocardial ...
