Treatment of Stent Dislodgement Complicated by Coronary Artery Dissection using Parallel Wire Technique and Small Balloon / 고신대학교의과대학학술지

ABSTRACT

Stent dislodgement is a rare complication of complex percutaneous coronary artery intervention and is often associated with significant morbidity. We report a case of stent dislodgement complicated by coronary artery dissection and acute total occlusion of left circumflex coronary artery. Direct expansion of the dislodged stent was performed using parallel wire technique and small balloon. An overlapping stent was implanted for remained coronary artery dissection. Coronary artery flow was restored and ST segment elevation was normalized after successful intervention.
