Hybrid Coronary Thrombectomy for Thrombotic Storm Rescue
<h2>Abstract</h2> While large randomized trials have failed to demonstrate a clinical benefit from conventional aspiration thrombectomy (1), i nnovative strategies remain needed, particularly in patients with a large thrombus burden. We report the case of a patient presenting with a late inferior myocardial infarction and a massive, organized thrombus in the right coronary artery (RCA), requiring the combination of two thrombectomy techniques to restore coronary flow.
