It was reported that a dissection occurred.The 85%-90% stenosed target lesion was located the mildly tortuous and mildly calcified distal left main to proximal left anterior descending artery.A 2.50 x 12 mm non-compliant balloon was used to predilate the lesion.A 3.00 x 12 mm wolverine was then used to further dilate the fibrotic lesion at 12 atm.A 3.00 x 32 mm synergy was deployed at 12 atm and a 3.25 mm non-compliant balloon was used to dilate the lad followed by dilation of the lm with a 4.00 x 8 mm non-compliant balloon.A type b dissection, caused by deployment of the 3.00 x 32 mm synergy, was noted at the proximal part of the stent.A 4.00 x 12 mm synergy was then deployed to cover the dissection.No leakage of contrast was noted and the patient's vitals were stable.The procedure was completed and the patient was safe.
