Abstract:
Coronary perforation (CP) is a rare but potentially lethal complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Management of CP is mainly conditioned by the extension of coronary rupture and location of the perforation. Successful treatment is highly affected by the operator's familiarity with tools and dedicated techniques to achieve prompt sealing of the disruption. We describe a "Balloon-Microcatheter" technique that may allow fast, safe, and effective management of CP with a single ≥ 6 Fr guiding catheter. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
