    Area of Science:

    • Interventional Cardiology
    • Cardiovascular Medicine
    • Medical Device Complications

    Background:

    • Stent dislodgement and embolization before deployment are recognized complications in interventional cardiology.
    • These events typically result in the stent remaining in the treated vessel or traveling to the systemic circulation.

    Observation:

    • This report details a unique instance of an undeployed stent embolizing from one coronary artery to a different coronary artery.

    Findings:

    • Embolization of an undeployed stent between coronary arteries represents a previously undocumented complication.
    • This specific scenario presents unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.

    Implications:

    • Early recognition and understanding of this rare complication are crucial for patient safety.
  • Awareness among interventional cardiologists can guide management strategies and improve clinical outcomes.
