Abstract
We report a case of coronary dissection following percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) in which the dissection extended antegrade as well as retrograde into the aortic root. Emergent stenting was able to seal the dissection entry point, resulting in restoration of normal coronary flow and diminution in the degree of aortic dissection.Entities:
