Treatment of Vascular Perforation Bleeding Complications Post-Coronary Intervention Using Coils

Area of Science:

• Interventional Cardiology
• Vascular Surgery
• Radiology

Background:

• Artery perforation is a rare but serious complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
• Prompt recognition and management are critical, especially in high-risk patients or complex procedures.
• Uncontrolled hemorrhage from vessel perforation can be life-threatening.

Purpose of the Study:

• To highlight the successful management of artery perforations and aneurysms using coil embolization.
• To emphasize the effectiveness of coil embolization in achieving hemostasis and preventing complications.
• To underscore the importance of timely diagnosis and intervention in managing these critical events.

Main Methods:

• Case series report detailing three distinct cases of artery perforation.
• Interventional procedures involving coil embolization to seal perforated or ruptured vessels.
• Management focused on achieving hemostasis and patient stabilization.

Main Results:

• Successful coil embolization was achieved in all three presented cases.
• Coil embolization effectively controlled hemorrhage from artery perforations and an aneurysm.
• Patients were stabilized, and further complications were prevented post-intervention.

Conclusions:

• Coil embolization is a crucial, lifesaving technique for managing artery perforations and aneurysmal ruptures.
• Timely diagnosis, technical expertise, and availability of advanced interventional tools are paramount.
• High-risk interventions necessitate careful planning and skilled execution.
