Clinical Outcomes of Self-Made Polyurethane-Covered Stent Implantation for the Treatment of Coronary Artery Perforations

Figure 2

Example of self-made PU-CS implantation to seal a grade III coronary perforation located in LAD. (a) CAG reveals diffuse, tortuous, and calcified lesions in LAD with multiple 80–85% stenotic lesions. (b) CAG demonstrates a coronary artery perforation (Ellis grade III) in LAD (arrow). (c) CAG illustrates the deployment of the first self-made PU-CS (3.0 × 29 mm) in LAD (arrow). (d) CAG shows that the perforation site in LAD persists (arrow) and Guidezilla was used to deliver CS (∗). (e) CAG presents the deployment of the second self-made PU-CS (3.0 × 29 mm) (arrow). (f) Final angiography after successful implantation of CS. PU-CS = polyurethane-covered stent; LAD = left anterior descending coronary artery; CAG = coronary angiography.
