It was reported that on (b)(6) 2019, pre-dilatation was performed in the mid left anterior descending (lad) coronary artery lesion.A 3.0x23mm xience sierra stent was implanted in the mid lad.Following, stent underexpansion and a proximal stent dissection were noted.As treatment, post-dilatation was performed and a 4.0x18mm xience sierra stent was implanted.Acceptable procedure results were reported.Post procedure, elevated troponin was observed.An electrocardiogram was performed.There was no reported myocardial infarction.Reportedly, the troponin elevation was due to a loss of the diagonal branch related to the 3.0x23mm xience sierra stent underexpansion.Per physician, the troponin elevation was not serious and required no further treatment.No additional information was provided regarding this issue.
