Percutaneous transcatheter repair of a coronary aneurysm using a composite autologous cephalic vein-coated Palmaz-Schatz biliary stent.
Overview
abstract
We describe a novel percutaneous transcatheter technique using an autologous vein graft-coated Palmaz-Schatz stent for the treatment of a coronary aneurysm. This technique avoids the procedural risks that are currently associated with surgical repair with revascularization or spring coil embolization in the treatment of coronary aneurysm.
