Abstract:
Lesions with coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) can become complicated during percutaneous coronary intervention. Here, we report a case of a 78-year-old man who developed a rupture, and spontaneous sealing of the CAA occurred after stent implantation, as shown by computed tomography coronary angiography.
