Patient id: (b)(6).
It was reported that on (b)(6) 2020, a percutaneous coronary intervention (pci) was performed on the proximal right coronary artery (rca), 70% stenosed lesion.
Pre-dilatation and atherectomy was performed on the rca.
Following rotablator use, a proximal rca dissection occurred.
Reportedly, a 3.
5x15mm xience sierra stent was implanted at the rca ostium due to this dissection.
There was no underexpansion confirmed or reported and no device malfunction.
As planned, 3.
0x38mm and 3.
5x38mm xience sierra stents were implanted in the proximal rca.
Post-dilatation was performed using a non-compliant balloon.
The diameter stenosis was reduced to 25% with timi flow iii.
On (b)(6) 2020, the patient was hospitalized for severe substernal chest pain.
Medications including nitroglycerin had been provided.
Elevated troponin and a st elevated myocardial infarction (stemi) was diagnosed.
Per imaging, the ostial-proximal rca was patent, however, the proximal rca with the 3.
0x38mm and 3.
5x38mm xience sierra stents, to the distal rca, was occluded with 100% thrombus.
Reportedly, both the 3.
0x38mm and 3.
5x38mm xience sierra stents were underexpanded.
High pressure balloon angioplasty was performed, resolving the occlusion.
On (b)(6) 2020, the patient passed away due to respiratory failure, pneumonia, and the stemi, related to this hospitalization.
No additional information was provided regarding this issue.
