Exclusion of an Iatrogenic Coronary Aneurysm on the Anterior Interventricular Artery Using a Covered Stent: A Case Report from the Montlucon Hospital Center
Background and objective: Coronary aneurysms remain a rare pathology of the coronary vessels, with multiple etiologies and dramatic complications. The majority of patients remain asymptomatic. These complications must be prevented through urgent management. However, management is not clearly codified. The aim of our case report is to demonstrate the benefit of covered stenting in the management of coronary aneurysms. Case report: This report is on a patient who was affected by a saccular coronary aneurysm on the anterior interventricular artery, of iatrogenic etiology and had a satisfactory medium-term outcome with a successful covered stenting treatment. Conclusion: Coronary aneurysms are rare, of multiple etiologies, increasingly linked to increasingly complex procedures. Their management, especially in emergencies, is not clearly codified. Covered stenting therefore remains a simple technique with good results.
