Abstract :
[en] Longitudinal stent deformation is a recently described complication of percutaneous coronary intervention. It can lead to serious adverse outcomes. The precipitating mechanisms and treatment strategies have been described. We report a case of longitudinal stent deformation that occurred with the removal of a trapped rotablation guide wire.
