Critical Left Main Coronary Stenosis After Sutureless Aortic Valve Replacement

J Invasive Cardiol. 2020 Jun;32(6):E170-E171. doi: 10.25270/jic/19.00391.

Abstract

Our case illustrates the feasibility of high-risk PCI to salvage LMCA stenosis, possibly caused by coronary injury during direct coronary cardioplegia for a recent triple-valve operation.

Keywords: left main coronary artery stenosis; percutaneous coronary intervention; sutureless aortic valve replacement.
