It was reported that stent thrombosis and death occurred.A 2.25 x 12mm synergy ii drug-eluting stent (des) was implanted in the posterior "desceding" artery (pda).Two stents were placed in the left circumflex artery, a 2.25 x 16mm synergy ii des and a 2.25 x 12mm synergy ii des.Twenty minutes after the patient was taken off the table, the patient experienced chest pain.Electrocardiography revealed stent thrombosis on the three implanted stents.The physician placed a 2.25 x 8mm stent distal to previously implanted stent in the pda.The following day, a non-bsc temporary ventricular support device was implanted in the proximal right coronary artery because the patient was in shock.After one day, the patient died.The physician believes that the patient had a neurological event prior to removing the non-bsc device.
