Abstract Coronary artery dissection is a common occurrence after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We here firstly describe a interesting case of very rapid spontaneous recanalization associated with micro-dissection following PCI in the right coronary artery due to a total occlusion lesion that could not be stented but was associated with very early (a week) spontaneous healing and a favorable outcome.

Rapid Spontaneous Coronary Artery Reperfusion Following Severe Bradycardia During Exercise Tolerance Test: A Rare Case Report
The acute occlusion of a coronary artery without the evidence of myocardial infarction might immediately affect both the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease. We present the case with a sudden occlusion of the left main coronary artery without typical chest pain following an exercise tolerance test and rapid spontaneous reperfusion of the left main coronary artery.
متن کاملSuccessful Antegrade Recanalization of Chronic Total Aorto-ostial in Stent Occlusion of Right Coronary Artery with Previously Implanted Protruding Stent
Recanalization of coronary artery chronic total occlusions is a rapidly developing domain of percutaneous coronary interventions requiring considerable operator expertise. Tackling any aorto-ostial lesion with previously implanted stent that protrudes into aorta presents anatomical and technical challenge significantly reducing procedure success rates and is an obstacle when considering antegra...

We report the case of a 78-year-old woman with saphenous vein graft (SVG) disease and chronic total occlusion (CTO) in three native coronary arteries [left anterior descending artery (LAD), left circumflex artery, and the right coronary artery], who was successfully treated by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using the retrograde approach via the critically degenerated SVGs. The patient...
متن کاملSuccessful percutaneous coronary intervention for an in-stent chronic total occlusion in a patient with dextrocardia: a case report
BACKGROUND Percutaneous coronary interventions of chronic total occlusion represent one of the most challenging issues in interventional cardiology. A Caucasian patient with dextrocardia presented with an in-stent chronic total occluded right coronary artery, a constellation which has not been described previously in the literature. CASE PRESENTATION A 69-year-old man with pre-known situs inv...
متن کاملRescue percutaneous coronary recanalization of right coronary artery by retrograde approach
We describe the case of a 62-year-old female patient in whom there was an occlusion of collaterals and acute inferior wall ischemia during the opening procedure of right coronary artery (RCA) chronic total occlusion. Rescue percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of RCA by the retrograde approach was performed preventing heart muscle damage. In this article we discuss the issue of PCI by the r...
