The Crushing of the Undersized Stent to the Coronary Vessel Wall and Renal Stent Implantation as the Bail-out Strategy for Revascularization in a Patient with Acute Myocardial Infarction and Coronary Artery Ectasia
Acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction with coronary artery ectasia is rare and difficult to treat. The complication rate is high in percutaneous intervention. At the same time, a standard treatment cannot be performed due to the lack of sufficient studies. In this case, complex complications and a different solution technique are presented. Here, we present our experience with a case of acute inferior myocardial infarction in a 62-year-old man with an ectatic right coronary artery and a 1-year follow-up report.
