Key result
Prompt stenting of the entry site of an iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection successfully sealed the flap and restored TIMI grade 3 flow in a patient with acute myocardial infarction.
Why the study?
Coronary dissection extending to the ascending aorta is an uncommon, life-threatening complication of invasive coronary procedures, and the responsible mechanism for its occurrence during PCI remains to be discovered.

Case Report (n=1)
Brisk sealing of the entry site of an iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection with a stent during PCI appears safe and feasible in hemodynamically stable patients.
Macovei et al. (2023) conducted a case report in Iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection during percutaneous coronary intervention (n=1). Stenting of the dissection entry site was evaluated on Sealing of the dissection flap and restoration of coronary flow. Prompt stenting of the entry site of an iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection successfully sealed the flap and restored TIMI grade 3 flow in a patient with acute myocardial infarction.
