ABSTRACT
We report the implantation of a balloon-expandable intravascular stent at proximal left anterior decending artery in a patients suffered from Canakian functional class III angina for 8 years. The patient received 3 times percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty at proximal left anterior descending and circumflex artery without benefits. Repeated angiography revealed restenosis at proximal left anterior descending artery. Atherectomy was tried with transluminal extraction catheter(TEC) with luminal dissection and coronary bypass graft followed. occluded vein grafts were defined by follow-up angiography and chest pain recurred. No residual stenosis or thrombosis was documented in 24 hour follow-up angiography and the patient was discharged without symptom at 10 days after stenting.
