Iatrogenic type A aortic dissection complicating percutaneous coronary intervention: a case report.

ABSTRACT: Iatrogenic type A dissection caused by percutaneous coronary intervention is a rare but life-threatening condition. Computed tomographic angiography is an excellent diagnostic tool commonly utilized if such procedural complication is clinically suspected. There are, however, potential diagnostic challenges. Herein, we present an illustrative case of iatrogenic type A dissection successfully diagnosed on computed tomography angiography along with a potential diagnostic pitfall.

Delayed percutaneous coronary intervention for an extensive iatrogenic left main coronary artery dissection: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundIatrogenic left main coronary artery dissection is a rare but serious complication that can occur both during diagnostic coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention. Early diagnosis and choice of optimal management are of crucial importance for patient's outcome while representing a challenge for clinicians.Case presentationWe present a case of iatrogenic left main coronary artery dissection occurring during diagnostic coronary angiography in a 53-year-old Greek woman with a history of coronary artery bypass grafting. Although dissection was greatly extending to mid left anterior descending artery, delayed percutaneous coronary intervention was successfully performed by carefully wiring the true lumen.ConclusionsDelayed percutaneous coronary intervention, performed 25 days following the index event, proved to be a feasible and effective strategy for treating a widely extended left main coronary artery iatrogenic dissection.

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Iatrogenic Right Coronary Artery Dissection Post Bentall Procedure: A Case Report and Minireview.

Project description:Iatrogenic coronary artery dissection is a potentially life-threatening complication of cardiovascular interventions. The optimal management of iatrogenic coronary artery dissection is not clear; however, both conservative management and percutaneous or surgical revascularization have been performed depending on the patient's clinical status and the extent of dissection. We present the first reported case of right coronary artery dissection after Bentall procedure performed for ascending aortic aneurysm. Urgent percutaneous intervention using adjunctive coronary imaging was performed with excellent clinical recovery. In this article, we highlight coronary artery dissection after Bentall procedure as a possible complication, provide an insight into various options in its management, and review published data on iatrogenic coronary artery dissection. We also discuss the challenges in percutaneous treatment of coronary artery dissection with special focus on intracoronary imaging for accurate diagnosis and guidance in the management of this complex lesion.

Iatrogenic Aortocoronary Dissection During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Investigation and Management.

Project description:We present a case of iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection sustained during routine percutaneous coronary intervention for stable angina. Careful wiring of the true lumen and stent implantation to seal off the dissection flap prevented immediate complications, and computed tomography aortography guided a conservative approach to manage the residual aortic dissection. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).

Percutaneous coronary intervention in recurrent spontaneous coronary artery dissection: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundSpontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an infrequent but potentially life-threatening condition in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Conservative medical therapy is recommended in patients with SCAD. However, very little evidence exists in the management of recurrent SCAD when conservative medical therapy fails.Case summaryA 48-year-old woman presented with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) on a background of cigarette smoking. Her coronary angiogram showed the first diagonal artery (D1) and right marginal branch (RM) occlusion with angiographic appearance that is consistent with SCAD. She was medically managed. She represented 2 months later with another NSTEMI, and her coronary angiogram showed healing SCAD in the D1 and RM, but a new SCAD in the first obtuse marginal artery (OM1). She was managed medically. She represented 4 months later complaining of angina every 2 days. This time her coronary angiogram showed healed SCAD in OM1 and RM, but the recurrence of SCAD in D1. Given that she had recurrent events despite medical therapy, we decided to proceed with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to D1. She presented with an atypical chest pain 10 months later and her coronary angiogram showed complete healing of all coronary arteries and a patent stent in D1. She has remained symptom free.DiscussionThe management of SCAD is contentious given the lack of randomized clinical trials to assess optimal treatment strategy. In most patients with SCAD, conservative medical therapy is recommended after the diagnosis is secured. We believe that PCI may be beneficial in patients with recurrent SCAD.

A case report of an iatrogenic coronary cameral fistula treated by retrograde percutaneous coronary intervention.

Project description:Background:Acquired coronary cameral fistula is an extremely rare condition that involves an abnormal communication between a coronary artery and a cardiac chamber. It usually occurs after chest trauma or cardiovascular interventions, such as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and is associated with various outcomes, ranging from a stable status to haemodynamic instability. Acquired coronary cameral fistula frequently arises from the right coronary artery and drains generally into the right ventricle. Case summary:We report the unusual case of a 56-year-old male patient referred to an invasive cardiology centre for a suspected left anterior descending (LAD) coronary-left ventricular (LV) fistula resulting from a primary PCI for an anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Here, the confirmed LAD-LV fistula was successfully treated by retrograde PCI with covered stent implantation. Clinical and angiographic outcomes were favourable at 1-month follow-up. Discussion:Coronary cameral fistula can be a severe complication of primary PCI. Various treatment strategies can be considered based on haemodynamic status and anatomical features. In the case described herein, the use of a retrograde approach led to permanent fistula closure and complete revascularization.

Iatrogenic Acute Ascending Aortic Dissection with Intramural Hematoma during Coronary Artery Stenting: A Case Report.

Project description:BackgroundIatrogenic acute ascending aortic dissection during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is an exceptionally rare and life-threatening sequel that requires early and accurate diagnosis along with rapid management. No guidelines have yet been established to direct decisions on the different treatment options that can be employed in the setting of acute aortic dissections caused by PCI. However, similar cases have been treated either by intracoronary stenting and conservative management as in localized aortocoronary dissections or by surgical intervention in cases of extensive aortic dissections.Case summaryHereby, we present a rare case of a female patient who developed "full-blown" acute ascending aortic dissection (Stanford type A-DeBakey type II dissection) with intramural hematoma during an elective percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) of the right coronary artery (RCA) and left circumflex artery (LCA). Accordingly, emergent surgical repair of the dissected aorta was performed including grafting of supracoronary ascending aortic tube, along with coronary artery bypass graft placement and septal myomectomy for severely hypertrophied cardiac septum. The patient recovered successfully without any documented postoperative complications.ConclusionIt is pivotal to avoid aggressive use of instrumentation during PTCA in order to prevent the potential development of catheter-induced aortic dissection.

Severe chronic aortic regurgitation after percutaneous coronary intervention: a case report and literature review.

Project description:BackgroundSevere aortic regurgitation (AR) is an extremely rare complication after coronary catheterization and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), where most reported cases have required relatively urgent surgical intervention due to acute-onset AR and cardiac decompensation.Case summaryWe report a case of a 60-year-old woman that previously presented with a non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) due to an ostial right coronary artery stenosis. During the course of 2 years, she developed five recurrent NSTEMI due to in-stent thrombosis, necessitating either a new coronary stent or balloon. She developed a chronic severe AR due to a drug-eluting coronary stent protruding from the right coronary artery and underwent successful aortic valve replacement and coronary artery by-pass grafting.DiscussionWe performed a literature review and identified 16 reported cases of iatrogenic severe aortic regurgitation related to coronary catheterization or percutaneous coronary intervention. All patients developed an acute aortic regurgitation and, thus, we report the first case of a delayed complication caused by a protruding coronary stent. The surgical strategy is related to the extent of the damage, where smaller perforations or lacerations seems to be feasible for aortic valve repair and larger defects more often lead to aortic valve replacement. Our patient developed a fibrotic right coronary cusp which could not be used to perform a successful aortic valve repair.

Iatrogenic right coronary artery dissection distal to a total occlusion: a case report.

Project description:IntroductionCoronary artery dissections with or without rupture is a rare but well-recognized complication of coronary angiography with a high morbidity and mortality rate.Case presentationWe present a rare case of right coronary artery dissection distal to a totally occluded vessel. The vessel dissected during the second injection of contrast agent without any direct mechanical manipulation (catheter or guide-wire induced). Hopefully the dissection had no clinical consequences and the patient was discharged after 48 hour intensive monitoring.ConclusionsWe believe that the contrast agent that was forced in the proximal part of the RCA increased through the anastomotic branches the sheer stress on the diseased endothelium of the distal artery causing it to dissect. It is an instructive -not previously described- phenomenon that underscores that atherosclerotic tissue is unpredictable and should be treated with extreme caution.
