“…Coronary artery perforation is one of these serious mechanical complications requiring emergent cardiac surgery which may lead to cardiac tamponade. Fukui et al [9] reported the incidence of coronary artery perforation during PCI to be between 0.2% and 0.8% with a reported rate of 2.9% by Patel et al [8] Device entrapment, as seen in our case, also requires emergent cardiac surgery in most cases. [10] Despite low complication rates, these complications still occur.…”

“…The incidence of such complications during PCI requiring emergency coronary artery bypass grafting surgery has decreased from 2.9 % in 1999 to 0.8 % in 2003 [1]. Surgical removal of entrapped coronary angioplasty/stenting hardware has been reported, together with surgical techniques to restore the blood supply to the diseased coronary artery [2,3]. Following stent removal, we performed an open endarterectomy because the intima had been badly torn by the stent and guidewire.…”

“…Surgical removal of entrapped equipment is mandatory if these methods fail. Angioplasty (autologous vein patch or on-lay internal thoracic artery [ITA] patch) of the coronary artery or vessel ligation with distal aorta-coronary bypass have usually been performed following stent removal and eventual coronary artery endarterectomy [2,3]. We present a patient in whom a coronary-coronary autologous vein conduit was used to reconstruct the disintegrated left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery bed following removal of a protection wire entrapped in the coronary stent.…”
