Cardiomiopatia isquêmica terminal associada à complicação do uso de stent no tratamento de infarto agudo do miocárdio

Abstract: Cardiomiopatia isquêmica terminal associada à complicação do uso de stent no tratamento de infarto agudo do miocárdioTerminal ischemic cardiomyopathy associated with complication of stenting in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction A serious complication such as dissection of the left main coronary artery, with significant reduction in coronary blood flow by the true light, requires quick action. Therefore, the immediate choice of stent with appropriate length and size to treat the complication is neces… Show more

“…Therefore, this case suggests that stent extrusion with concomitant coronary occlusion may be the mechanism underlying the clinical deterioration in patients with ischemic heart failure, who underwent stenting because of coronary dissection. Moreover, it also suggests that coronary angiography should be performed even if there is myocardial viability in sestamibi myocardial scintigraphy, as can be seen in the case reported by Braulio et al [8].…”

“…However, the mortality rate associated with this procedure is still high, ranging from 4% to 14% [9]. An alternative treatment for coronary artery dissection is the stent, as was performed in the case reported by Braulio et al [8]. However, the long-term effects of stenting with respect to the maintenance of patency of coronary artery flow and reversing left ventricular remodeling process is still unknown.…”
