Date of Publication: 01 Oct 2016. | Journal: | Cardiovascular Intervention and Therapeutics | Abstract: | Coronary perforations are a rare but potentially catastrophic complication of percutaneous coronary intervention. We report a rare case of a large cavity-spilling perforation from the left anterior descending coronary artery into the left ventricle, which was successfully treated with a covered stent. However, repeating angiography 1 week later demonstrated persistence of the perforation due to stent malapposition.Copyright © 2015, Japanese Association of Cardiovascular Intervention and Therapeutics. | DOI: | http://monash.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s12928-015-0346-0 | PubMed URL: | 26197781 [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=26197781] | ISSN: | 1868-4300 | URI: | https://repository.monashhealth.org/monashhealthjspui/handle/1/40493 | Type: | Article | Type of Clinical Study or Trial: | Case series or case report |
