May support stenting to avert surgery in select iatrogenic dissections; leaves open need for prospective data before practice change.
Case Report (n=1)
Timely coronary stenting can successfully treat iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection, averting the need for major cardiac surgery.
Bury et al. (2011) conducted a case report in Iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection (n=1). Coronary intervention with stenting was evaluated on Sealing the entry point with complete healing of the aortic root and TIMI-3 patency. Timely coronary intervention with stenting successfully sealed the entry point of an iatrogenic aortocoronary dissection, restoring TIMI-3 patency and averting major cardiac surgery.
