✦ Synopsis


Stent loss and failure of retrieval are rare; nevertheless, complications have to be taken into account during percutaneous coronary intervention. Here we report a case of an unexpanded, irretrievable Palmaz-Schatz stent in the proximal right coronary artery near to the ostium and the successful management by implanting a synthetic stent graft.
