Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is an extremely common and well-established procedure in adults which is rarely performed in children.

We highlight the technical challenges of performing a PCI in a small patient, the risks of antithrombotic prophylaxis in this age group, and the importance of the combined work of the adult and pediatric interventional cardiologist.
