PG - 967-70 LID - 10.1002/ccd.22368 [doi] AB - A successfully deployed stent is normally stable in position and unlikely to be dislodged from the coronary artery. We report a case of complete stent dislodgement after successful implantation in a patient with recent anterior myocardial infarction (AMI). Coronary angulation, a highly calcified coronary artery, an under-deployed stent, and the process of rewiring contributed to this unexpected event. Fortunately, no unwanted complication occurred as a consequence of this event. CI - Copyright 2010 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
