Periprocedural Myocardial Infarction After Retrograde Approach for Chronic Total Occlusion of Coronary Artery: Demonstrated by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
نویسندگان
چکیده
A retrograde approach through the collateral channels was recently proposed as one of the most promising current techniques for percutaneous coronary intervention of chronic total occlusion in coronary arteries (CTO). This report describes the case of a 68-year-old man in whom CTO was successfully crossed with a wire by the retrograde approach using septal collateral, but the patient suffered from a complication with septal myocardial infarction demonstrated by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

The reverse CART technique provides the potential to modify the retrograde procedure by improving the controlled movement of the retrograde wire and improve the success rates of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of chronic total occlusion (CTO). Development of interventricular hematoma is a rare complication of CTO PCI. A 63-year-old man with effort angina with a right coronary artery CT...

Technetium-99m-pyrophosphate (99mTc-PYP) has been used, in combination with thallium-201, to estimate the site and extent of myocardial infarcts. We report a case of acute myocardial infarction with severe coronary disease in which the distribution of 99mTc-PYP was extensive. A 78-year-old man presented with dyspnea, and a diagnosis of non-ST-segment elevation acute myocar...

متن کاملImages in cardiovascular medicine. Interventricular septal hematoma and ventricular septal defect after retrograde intervention for a chronic total occlusion of a left anterior descending coronary artery.
A 73-year-old man with unstable angina was found to have a severely calcified chronic total occlusion (CTO) of the mid left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD). Diagnostic coronary angiography confirmed the CTO to be complex, with a “flush” occlusion occurring in a segment associated with proximal septal and diagonal branches. Retrograde filling of the distal LAD occurred via 2 large sept...
