Abstract:
Stent loss is one of the major complications which can occur during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We report a case of a 65-year-old man, diabetic and smoker, who presented to us with an inferior wall myocardial infarction. During primary PCI, stent loss occurred while attempting to cover a residual lesion. The wire twisting method was employed for retrieval, but this resulted in retraction of previously deployed stent and flow limiting proximal right coronary artery (RCA) dissection, necessitating urgent bailout stenting. The case highlights the technical challenges and potential risks associated with the wire twisting method.
