Structured PICO

Population

1 pediatric patient (12 years old) undergoing radiofrequency ablation of a posteroseptal pathway

Intervention

Coronary stenting after unsuccessful angioplasty

Outcome

Resolution of acute right coronary artery occlusionsafety

Coronary stenting can be utilized to treat acute right coronary artery occlusion complicating radiofrequency ablation of a posteroseptal pathway in pediatric patients.

Abstract

We describe a complication of radiofrequency ablation of a posteroseptal pathway that resulted in acute occlusion of a distal right coronary artery in a pediatric patient. The complication was treated with coronary stenting after unsuccessful angioplasty. Cathet. Cardiovasc. Intervent. 46:59–61, 1999. © 1999 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
