چکیده
|
A stent fracture is an emerging complication of the coronary stents. there are numerous risk factors for stent fractures; which include forceful exaggerated motion in the atrioventricular groove seen in right coronary artery, long stent, an ostial lesion at the point of maximum curvature in a tortuous vessel, stent over-expansion, stent overlapping with different size stents, complex lesion after stenting of a totally occluded vessel, cypher stent and a highly mobile segment causing high mechanical stress. furthermore, chronic stretch at specific vessel sites as bends may lead to late occurrence of fracture. here we report a case of 40-year-old male who had two overlapping cypher stents (3.0 ×13 mm and 2.75 ×18 mm) deployed at mid left anterior descending artery 2 years earlier presented with progressive chest pain.
