Coronary artery bypass as a treatment of stent dislodgement: A case report.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Stent dislodgement is a known complication during coronary angiography. Different methods are used to retrieve it including open heart surgery.

Case presentation

A 71 year-old male with stable angina was scheduled for elective coronary angiography. Angiography showed two significant stenosis: one in the proximal right coronary artery (RCA) and one in the left anterior descending artery (LAD). Upon deployment of the right coronary stent, it got lodged and the cardiologist was unable to retrieve it. The patient started to experience angina and his ECG showed ST segment elevation in the inferior leads. Emergency CABG was performed.

Conclusion

Stent dislodgement is a rare but serious complication. Most cases are treated by interventional methods; however, CABG is still needed in some cases.

Fulminant psudeumonas pneumonia following coronary artery bypass grafting - Case report

Project description:Introduction and importance Pneumonia has always been a source of complication after surgeries. Pseudomonas aeruginosa has emerged as one of the most problematic Gram-negative pathogens among nosocomial infections. Pneumonia caused by pseudomonas is usually slowly progressive allowing clinicians to detect and manage it on time. Clinical presentation A 55-year-old man was hospitalized for elective CABG, complicated by fulminant pneumonia. Vancomycin and meropenem were adminestered as soon as the symptoms appeared. However, the patient died from septic shock syndrome caused by pseudomonas pneumonia on the third postoperative day, just hours after the first symptom appeared. The chest X-ray showed an extreme opacity within less than 12 h. Clinical discussion This case is reported because of its rare clinical presentation of Fulminant pseudomonas pneumonia following cardiac surgery. Conclusion Consider pseudomonas aeruginosa as a certain cause of pneumonia after cardiac surgery, and an organized, modified guideline is needed to determine the best option and timeline for treating this complication. Highlights • Pneumonia is one of the main complications following cardiac surgeries.• Pseudomonas Aeroginosa can be one of the main agents.• Even though the pseudomonas pneumonia present in slowly progressing sepsis, fulminant pneumonia can also be caused by pseudomonas.• Modified guideline for post cardiac surgery pneumonia is recommended.

Case Report: Optical Coherence Tomography Usage for Treatment of the Chronically Lost Stent in the Left Main Coronary Artery.

Project description:Acute adverse outcomes of a stent loss during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are well described, however, data on long-term consequences are scarce, especially with intravascular imaging. We report a case of a coronary stent loss in the left main and ostial left circumflex artery (LCx) bifurcation and its migration into the LCx ostium during PCI procedures. This rare complication, which was not immediately noticed, was verified and successfully resolved 5 months after using optical coherence tomography and right trans-radial access. Considering the infrequency of this complication, few cases have been reported, however, our case has several distinct specificities. We aim to encourage the crushing technique in cases of chronic stent loss when the retrieval is not an option and highlight the optical coherence tomography (OCT) value in imaging and evaluation of similar complex settings.

Late spontaneous internal thoracic artery graft dissection after coronary bypass grafting: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundInternal thoracic artery (ITA) grafts are commonly used for coronary artery bypass grafting, with dissection to the graft being a rare occurrence. Herein, we describe a case of spontaneous ITA graft dissection occurring 11 years after grafting, with no clear precipitating incidence.Case summaryThe patient was a 61-year-old man who presented with a 3-month history of chest pain and dyspnoea. Dissection of the left internal thoracic artery (LITA) graft was observed on angiography, with a thrombolysis in the myocardial infarction (TIMI) grade 2 blood flow. Intravascular ultrasound confirmed an intimal tear in the proximal graft, with an intramural haematoma. In the absence of atherosclerotic changes, the dissection was treated directly using multiple drug-eluting stents to prevent further extension of the intramural haematoma proximally into the subclavian artery and distally to the anastomosis site. Post-procedural angiography revealed an enlarged true lumen of the LITA, shrinking of the intramural haematoma, and improvement in blood flow to a TIMI grade 3. Chest symptoms resolved immediately after the procedure, with the patient remaining asymptomatic over the 6-month period following the procedure.DiscussionDissection of the ITA graft can occur spontaneously long after the initial grafting. Intravascular ultrasound is useful for diagnosis. Ensuring adequate coverage of the edges of the dissection with stenting could prevent further extension of the intramural haematoma.

Multiple coronary artery perforation following global pericardial tamponade in a patient with prior coronary artery bypass graft surgery: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundPatients who undergo coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery rarely develop global pericardial tamponade due to pericardial adhesions. There are no reports of multiple coronary artery perforations following global pericardial tamponade during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in these patients.Case summaryA 52-year-old male who underwent CABG surgery developed effort angina pectoris. Coronary angiography demonstrated chronic total occlusion (CTO) of the first diagonal branch with severe stenosis of the second diagonal branch. Because his chest pain did not improve with medical therapy and ischaemia of the left ventricular anterolateral wall was confirmed by myocardial scintigraphy, PCI was performed. The second diagonal branch stenosis was passed anterogradely by a 0.014-inch coronary angioplasty guidewire, while the first diagonal branch CTO was recanalized by side-branch intravascular ultrasonography-guided parallel wiring. After stent deployment, coronary artery perforation at the distal end of the second diagonal branch was detected via contrast injection. We immediately performed intravascular haemostasis, leading to the disappearance of contrast. However, multiple bleeding sites were visualized by angiography at different sites of coronary arteries, including the circumflex artery. Although intravascular haemostasis is a standard procedure, we could not control rebleeding. Despite intensive care, the patient died.DiscussionIncreased tissue pressure due to bleeding possibly led to global pericardial tamponade with multiple coronary artery perforations. We report a rare case of a patient with multiple coronary artery perforations during coronary intervention.

Stent treatment for huge aneurysm of the common hepatic artery: A case report.

Project description:Objective/backgroundHuge aneurysm of the visceral artery is rare and a treatment strategy for such cases has not yet been established. Here, we report a case of huge aneurysm of the common hepatic artery (44-mm diameter) successfully treated by stent placement.MethodsA 77-year-old female patient was referred to our department due to growth of the common hepatic artery aneurysm. The cause of the aneurysm was suspected to be segmental arterial mediolysis. Due to the possibility of a spontaneous rupture, we decided to stent the common hepatic artery.ResultWe had some difficulties during the procedure, such as thrombosis of the stent, and it was necessary to insert an additional stent. The procedure was effective and the patient has been doing well without any complications at the 6-year follow-up.ConclusionStenting is possible and effective in cases of huge aneurysm of the common hepatic artery.

Incidental finding of tuberculous pleural effusion in patient undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting: Case report.

Project description:IntroductionPleural effusion is common in patient with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) usually due to heart failure in preoperative and trauma of surgery in postoperative patient. Tuberculous Pleural effusion is most common form of extra pulmonary Tuberculosis. Preoperatively Tuberculous pleural effusion in CABG patients has rarely been described in literature.Presentation of caseA 62 years old gentleman with ischemic heart disease was admitted for coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. Preoperative workup showed left sided pleural. Intraoperatively left sided turbid yellowish colour effusion with loculation was noted while harvesting left internal mammary artery. Loculation were broken down, effusion was drained and tissues were sent for microbiology and histopathology. CABG was performed smoothly. Microbiology of pleural tissue revealed Mycobacterium tuberculosis while histopathology showed chronic granulomatous inflammation. Patient was started on antituberculous therapy and remained well six months postoperatively.ConclusionIn developing countries even without any constitutional symptoms of Tuberculosis high index of suspicion for Tuberculosis should be made for patient with pleural effusion especially in cases of cardiac surgery as to prevent morbidity and mortality.

Unusual interventional treatment of spontaneous coronary artery dissection without stent implantation: a case series.

Project description:BackgroundSpontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a unique cause of myocardial infarction, and optimal treatment should be selected according to the ischaemic condition. Patients with ongoing ischaemia or haemodynamic instability may require revascularization. Cutting balloon (CB) angioplasty has been acknowledged as an option for revascularization. However, few observations of the coronary artery conditions after CB angioplasty in SCAD patients have been reported. Here, we demonstrate two cases in which we evaluated the angiographic morphology of targeted coronary arteries in the chronic phase after CB angioplasty.Case summaryPatient 1 was a 46-year-old woman who presented at our hospital with chest pain. Electrocardiography suggested acute coronary syndrome and coronary angiography was performed. The coronary angiography and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) examinations revealed SCAD in the left anterior descending artery (LAD). Revascularization with CB angioplasty was successful. Follow-up coronary angiography 15 months after the angioplasty showed no visible stenosis in the LAD. Accordingly, the patient no longer needed to antiplatelet therapy. Patient 2 was a 50-year-old woman who was transported to our hospital for ventricular tachycardia. Coronary angiography and IVUS revealed SCAD in the right coronary artery. Coronary flow was restored by CB angioplasty. Follow-up contrast-enhanced computed tomography angiography 36 months after angioplasty showed a healed appearance. Thus, she was able to discontinue antiplatelet therapy.DiscussionCutting balloon angioplasty may be a possible method to treat SCAD.
