Abstract
Stent malapposition remains an important cause of complications following stent implantation. Stent underexpansion is a frequent cause of this. We describe a case of coronary stent malapposition as a result of a post-stenotic aneurysm. Both the malapposition and its etiology were clearly demonstrated by optical coherence tomography, a novel high-resolution imaging technology.Entities:
