Abstract
We present a case of a 62 year old female with history of hypertension and high cholesterol levels who was admitted for cardiac catheterisation due to positive stress test consistent with anteroseptal ischaemia. One year earlier she had undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with placement of two sirolimus eluting stents (SES) in proxymal (Cypher 3,0/33) and medial (Cypher 2,5/28) segment of the LAD (Fig. 1, Fig. 2), with high pressure postdilatation with NC baloons (3,5/15 and 3,0/21). Second SES was placed because of coronary artery dissection at distal part of first stent. Fig. 2Final result after implantation of 2 Cypher stents.
