Abstract
A 54-year-old male with a history of coronary artery disease with a percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and stenting presented to the emergency with an acute myocardial infarction. The patient underwent angiography which showed in-stent thrombosis of the right coronary artery along with 2 aneurysms proximal to the lesion. The right coronary artery was treated with AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy and the JoStent coronary stent graft. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the use of the AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy and the JoStent coronary stent graft in acute myocardial infarction.Entities:
