Case Report (n=1)
This case report highlights the occurrence and rapid 4-day resolution of a large iatrogenic aortic dissection complicating percutaneous coronary intervention.

Percutaneous coronary intervention was complicated by an ostial right coronary artery dissection extending into the aorta, which resolved in 4 days.
