ABSTRACT
Stenting of muscle bridge is still a controversial issue with concerns regarding high restenosis rates, plaque prolapse and stent fracture. We report a case with significant atherosclerotic disease of right coronary artery and left anterior descending artery associated with a muscle bridge, proximal to the diseased segment which became more prominent after stenting the fixed lesion. This was managed by implanting another drug eluting stent, covering the bridge. Angiographic follow-up at 9 months revealed no difference in quantitative coronary angiography parameters in the stented segment of the bridge, as compared to other stented segments.
