It was reported that elevated cardiac enzymes and myocardial infarction occurred.At the time of the procedure, the patient received heparin or other antithrombotic medication, gp iib/iiia inhibitor and a loading dose of 325 mg of aspirin and 75 mg of clopidogrel.The 2.75 mm x15 mm target lesion located at the mid-left anterior descending vessel was pretreated with a 2.5 mm x 20 mm non-complaint balloon angioplasty catheter resulting in 0% stenosis and timi flow 3.The target lesion was then successfully treated with a 2.5 mm x 25 mm synergy xd drug eluting stent achieving 0% stenosis and timi flow 3.After the stent placement, the lesion was treated with an ancillary device: balloon angioplasty catheter (nc emerge).In addition, prior to the target lesion treatment, the non-target lesion extending from the proximal circumflex vessel to the first obtuse marginal vessel was successfully treated with the following devices: 3.0 mm x 15 mm, 3.5 mm x 12 mm, 2.5 mm x 20 mm balloon angioplasty catheters; 4.0 mm x 12 mm ivl; 3.5 mm x 16 mm drug eluting stent and 2.5 mm x 20 mm agent dcb.The core lab noted at the 3-6 hour post procedure lab draw, results demonstrated an elevated level of troponin t hs (128 ng/l) which met the criteria for myocardial infarction.The patient was started on clopidogrel and discharged the day after the procedure with the continuation of aspirin and clopidogrel.
