Abstract:
We report a case of distal migration of a stent from the brachiocephalic artery to the distal right common carotid artery 7 months after implantation in a 5-year-old child with Williams syndrome. There were no neurological sequelae and the migrated stent remained widely patent 5 years following implantation.
