Abstract
- Intracoronary stent implantation can improve coronary hemodynamics and myocardial ischemia in patients with symptomatic bridging. However, percutaneous coronary intervention for this lesion is limited due to the high prevalence of restenosis and risk of complications. We present a case of a totally occluded long-segment myocardial bridge in a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who was successfully implanted with a bare metal stent under intravascular ultrasound guidance without complications. The patient has been free of ischemic symptoms with stent patency for 10 years.
