Retrieval of a Partially Degloved Stent Strut During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention / 전남의대학술지

ABSTRACT

Although stent entrapment is a rare event during percutaneous coronary intervention, stent entrapment can cause stent breakage or loss, which results in fatal complications such as stent embolism or acute myocardial infarction. We report one case of stent entrapment that was successfully treated by a snare via a contralateral transfemoral approach.
