Percutaneous Treatment of Long Coronary Aneurysms: Novel Technique for Increased Efficacy and Safety

Although covered stents have been available for percutaneous treatment of coronary aneurysms, patients with longer aneurysmal segments have been difficult to treat with covered stents. We describe a case of a right coronary artery aneurysm with an angiographically estimated length exceeding 30 mm tr...

Descripción
Sumario:Although covered stents have been available for percutaneous treatment of coronary aneurysms, patients with longer aneurysmal segments have been difficult to treat with covered stents. We describe a case of a right coronary artery aneurysm with an angiographically estimated length exceeding 30 mm treated percutaneously using covered stents and conventionally available hardware. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
