Proximal stent migration during coarctation of aorta stenting
Our case illustrates the transcatheter management of proximal stent migration during CoA stenting, potentially reducing the need for surgical intervention. A stepwise strategy involving stent stabilization, low-profile balloon-assisted repositioning, and predilation of tight CoA segments can facilitate successful stent repositioning. This case contributes to the existing literature by documenting the occurrence and management of this rare complication.
