Review
Stent fracture warrants consideration in unexplained stent failure; leaves open prospective studies on true incidence and prevention.
In spite of there being several case reports, coronary stent fracture is not a well-recognized entity and incidence rates are likely to be underestimated. In this article, we review different aspects of stent fracture, including incidence, classification, predictors, outcome, diagnosis, and management.
