MYOCARDIAL BRIDGE STENTING COMPLICATED BY CORONARY ARTERY PERFORATION AND MIDLAD-RIGHT VENTRICLE FISTULA FORMATION IN NSTEMI PATIENT

Myocardial Bridge Stenting Complicated by Coronary Artery Perforation and MidLAD-Right Ventricle Fistula Formation in NSTEMI Patient

We report a case of a patient who presented with non ST-elevation myocardial infarction and coronary angiography showing a long myocardial bridge (MB) of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) with a fixed significant stenosis at the entry point hermit crab ornaments of the MB.The lesion was treated with a semi-compliant balloon and drug-eluted
