Abstract: | We report a case of successful treatment of coronary arteryperforation and cardiac tamponade with an autologous vein graft-coatedstent, which were developed during percutaneous transluminalcoronary angioplasty. The method reported here may be an effectivealternative to emergency surgery and should be considered whencoronary artery perforation does not respond to conventionalprolonged inflation with perfusion catheter. |
