- Abstract
Stent thrombosis is one of the most dangerous complications after a percutaneous coronary intervention. Additionally, another worrisome complication is the iatrogenic left main coronary artery dissection. We present a case of an iatrogenic left main coronary artery dissection spreading toward the circumflex artery, successfully treated by a prompt bail-out stenting.
