Resumen
ESCUTIA-CUEVAS, Héctor Hugo et al. Percutaneous coronary intervention with bioabsorbable vascular scaffolds in anomalous origin of right coronary artery: case report. Rev. Mex. Cardiol [online]. 2016, vol.27, n.4, pp.166-170. ISSN 0188-2198.
Introduction:
A case report describing the use of bio-absorbable vascular scaffolds in a patient with rare anomalous origin of right coronary artery.
Case report:
Male 71 years, ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction in the inferior region wall, thrombolysis with tenecteplase, with reperfusion criteria. Coronary angiography: left coronary system without angiographic lesions, right coronary artery with a significant lesion in the middle segment. An elective percutaneous coronary intervention was performed using 2 bio-absorbable vascular scaffolds (Absorb 3.5 x 28 mm joined in proximal segment with an Absorb 3.5 x 23 mm), posterior review with optical coherence tomography.
Results:
Discharged 24 hours later, remaining asymptomatic at 6 months follow-up.
Conclusion:
In this case, the significant stenosis of the artery involved was treated with the implantation of two bio-absorbable vascular scaffolds, obtaining an appropriate outcome after six months follow-up. This is the first report of a patient with anomalous origin of the right coronary artery treated with bio-absorbable vascular scaffolds in Mexico.
