It was reported that the procedure was to treat a perforation in in the mid left anterior descending (mlad) artery with heavy calcification.The 3.5x16mm graftmaster covered stent was implanted at the perforation; however, the stent failed to seal the perforation.Therefore another 3.5x16mm graftmaster was implanted and the perforation still did not seal.A 2.8x16mm was then implanted and the perforation was noted to not seal.Next a 4x16mm graftmaster stent was attempted to be advanced; however, the 4x16mm graftmaster stent failed to cross the first previously implanted 3.5x16mm graftmaster stent.Therefore the 4x16mm graftmaster stent was removed from the patient.Due to the perforation not being sealed and continuing to ooze, pericardiocentesis was performed and then open heart surgery was performed to patch the perforation.There was no adverse patient sequela.No additional information was provided.
