Giant Coronary Artery Aneurysm Associated with Extraluminal Migration of Stent: Role of Multimodal Imaging

Extraluminal migration of a drug-eluting intracoronary stent into pericardial space with or without aneurysm formation is a rare complication. It is usually symptomatic although rare asymptomatic cases have been described. Herein, we report a 49-year-old male who presented with atypical chest pain 9...

description Extraluminal migration of a drug-eluting intracoronary stent into pericardial space with or without aneurysm formation is a rare complication. It is usually symptomatic although rare asymptomatic cases have been described. Herein, we report a 49-year-old male who presented with atypical chest pain 9 years after intracoronary stent implantation in the right coronary artery and the ramus intermediate branch. Echocardiographic examination showed a 7.4 cm × 3.8 cm large oblong cystic mass along the lateral wall of the left ventricle with inward bulging of the adjacent segments. Computed tomography and invasive coronary angiography showed this mass to be a partly thrombosed giant oblong coronary aneurysm arising from the bifurcation of the left main coronary artery with extraluminal migration of the stent from the ramus branch.
