Does emergency intravascular stenting effectively treat acute coronary occlusion complicating elective saphenous vein graft angioplasty?
This early case report demonstrates the feasibility of using balloon expandable stents as a bail-out strategy for acute occlusion during saphenous vein graft angioplasty.
Mehl et al. (1990) studied this question.
