BACKGROUND: Iatrogenic left main coronary artery dissection is a rare but serious complication that can occur both during diagnostic coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention. Early diagnosis and choice of optimal management are of crucial importance for patient's outcome while representing a challenge for clinicians.
CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of iatrogenic left main coronary artery dissection occurring during diagnostic coronary angiography in a 53-year-old Greek woman with a history of coronary artery bypass grafting. Although dissection was greatly extending to mid left anterior descending artery, delayed percutaneous coronary intervention was successfully performed by carefully wiring the true lumen.
CONCLUSIONS: Delayed percutaneous coronary intervention, performed 25 days following the index event, proved to be a feasible and effective strategy for treating a widely extended left main coronary artery iatrogenic dissection.
