Abstract

We report on a 10-year-old child who suffered from acute right coronary obstruction due to catheter-induced coronary dissection. Immediate placement of a perfusion catheter into the obstructed right coronary artery and subsequent overnight reperfusion allowed successful recovery of the right coronary artery lumen without implantation of a stent. Follow-up angiography demonstrated spontaneous regression of the dissected coronary artery and normal right and left ventricular wall motion. The indication of stent implantation should be carefully determined in a child case of iatrogenic coronary dissection because stenting may induce coronary stenosis during growth.
