Stent dislodgement during Szabo technique

Abstract

The implantation of a stent in ostial lesions with Szabo technique is a simple, ingenious and useful way of treating these complex lesions. But in some circumstances the manipulation of the stent added to a calcified vessel could finish with complications. We present a case of stent dislodgement during Szabo technique in an ostial lesion placed in left anterior descending artery.
