Stent graft used to rescue coronary rupture during percutaneous coronary intervention for myocardial bridge.

چکیده
Myocardial bridge (MB) is a congenital variation of the coronary arteries and the segment of the coronary artery through myocardium is compressed during systole. Although it is relatively asymptomatic, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may be necessary to relieve symptoms. Perforation or frank rupture of coronary arteries occurs rarely in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. We report the coronary rupture in a case with myocardial bridge which occurred during percutaneous coronary intervention. We deployed a stent graft to successfully rescue the rupture of the distal segment of left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD-D) with myocardial bridge (MB).

Challenging case of Muscle Bridge; a 15-year follow-up of a patient
Background: Anatomically myocardial bridging (MB) consists of either superficial myocardial fibers that traverse over the LAD or deep fibers that encircle the coronary artery. In this study, we present a patient with myocardial bridging, who was primarily diagnosed with coronary artery disease which did not properly respond to full-dose medical treatment but benefited from coronary artery bypas...
متن کاملHemoptysis caused by saphenous vein graft perforation during percutaneous coronary intervention.
Percutaneous coronary intervention carries the risk of coronary artery perforation, which may lead to serious adverse effects such as cardiac tamponade, myocardial infarction, and even death. We describe a patient who developed hemoptysis immediately after saphenous vein graft rupture, which is a rare complication during coronary intervention. Stenting using a covered stent, along with simultan...

Coronary aneurysms in adults are rare clinical entities. Herein, we presented a 54-year-old man who was admitted with an acute extensive anterior myocardial infarction. The emergency coronary angiography revealed an isolated large aneurysm at the proximal segment of the left anterior descending coronary artery. The patient was successfully treated with a graft-coated stent

Perioperative myocardial ischemia is rare but serious complication of CABG. Graft dysfunction, coronary artery thrombosis and incomplete revascularization are main causes. Pharmacological treatment, intra aortic counter pulsation and immediate additional grafting have limited results. Treatment strategy based on coronary angiography findings could lessen the burden of high mortality rate in the...
متن کاملDiagnosis and Treatment of Spontaneous Coronary Artery Pseudoaneurysm
Spontaneous coronary artery pseudoaneurysm (PSA, false aneurysm) is an extremely rare occurrence with the precise incidence unknown. It is defined as an outwardly bulging monolayer or double layer within the coronary artery that lacks all 3 layers (intima, media, and adventitia) of the arterial wall. Coronary PSA commonly occurs from arterial dissection or perforation induced by catheter interv...
