Acute coronary artery closure following intracoronary ultrasound examination
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis
|July 1, 1995
Abstract:
Two patients undergoing intracoronary ultrasound examination were complicated by acute coronary artery closure. One of the complications was thought to be caused by intimal dissection and thrombus formation and the other was thought to be caused by intimal dissection and subsequent embolization. The complications were successfully managed conservatively in both cases.
