Abstract
Coronary artery perforation (CAP) poses a significant challenge for interventional cardiologists. Management of CAP depends on the location and severity of the perforation. The conventional method for addressing the perforation of large vessels involves the placement of a covered stent, while the perforation of distal and collateral vessels is typically managed using coils, autologous skin, subcutaneous fat, microspheres, gelatin sponge, thrombin or other substances. However, the above techniques have certain limitations and are not applicable in all scenarios. Our team has developed a range of innovative strategies for effectively managing CAP. This article provides an insightful review of the various tips and tricks for the treatment of CAP.

J Cardiovasc Dev Dis 2023; 10:496. [PMID: 38132663 PMCID: PMC10743633 DOI: 10.3390/jcdd10120496] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Iatrogenic distal coronary artery perforation can be a life-threatening complication. While there are different dedicated devices for the embolization of distal perforations, there are scarce data about the embolization using the fragmented balloon catheter, the so-called cut balloon technique (CBT). METHODS We included consecutive patients with distal coronary perforations treated with CBT in four cardiac centers between 2017 and 2023. Clinical, angiographic and procedural characteristics as well as in-hospital outcomes were recorded. RESULTS Twenty-six patients (68% men, mean age: 71 ± 10.6 years) with 25 distal coronary perforations and one septal collateral perforation were included. Eleven patients (42%) had elective percutaneous coronary intervention, while fifteen patients (58%) were treated for acute coronary syndrome. The site of perforation was most frequently distributed in the left anterior descending artery (40%), followed by the circumflex artery (28%) and right coronary artery (24%). The diameter of balloons for CBT ranged from 1.5 to 4.0 mm, with most balloons (76%) being either 2.0 or 2.5 mm in diameter. Most balloons (88%) were previously used for lesion predilatation. The numbers of cut balloons needed to seal the perforation were 1, 2 and ≥3 in 48%, 20% and 32% of cases, respectively. The in-hospital prognosis was favorable, with cardiac tamponade requiring pericardiocentesis in only four (16%) patients. Neither emergency surgery nor cardiac death occurred. CONCLUSIONS CBT is a safe, efficient and easy-to-implement technique for the embolization of coronary perforations. Most distal coronary perforations can be sealed with one or two fragments of cut balloons, obviating the need for additional devices.

Abstract
Ellis type 4 coronary artery perforation (CAP4), also referred to as Ellis type 3 cavity-spilling perforation, is a rare but life-threatening complication of percutaneous coronary intervention characterized by extravasation of blood into a cardiac chamber, anatomic cavity, or coronary sinus or vessel. CAP4 is uncommon, accounting for 1.9% to 3.0% of all CAP. Only 11 cases of CAP4 have been reported in detail; we report an additional two cases and review prior reports of this rare complication. Our first case highlights a patient with chronic anginal symptoms due to a 75% concentric stenotic lesion in the mid-LAD. Revascularization was complicated by perforation during pre-dilation with robust contrast extravasation into the left ventricle. Successful postperforation hemostasis was achieved with heparin reversal and covered stent placement. The second case demonstrates another major mechanism of CAP4: wire perforation. During intervention, the absence of blood flow distal to the lesion in the setting of an ST segment elevation myocardial infarction obscured the course of the nonhydrophilic floppy wire leading to perforation that was managed conservatively. In our scoping review, we found that the majority of CAP4 occurred in the LAD. The most frequently involved cavity was the left ventricle-other cavities involved were the right ventricle and coronary veins. Common etiologies of CAP4 included guidewire perforation (62%) and balloon dilation (31%). Perforation was managed with reversal of anticoagulation in 46% of cases, prolonged balloon inflation in 54% of cases, and covered stent deployment in 15% of cases. No patients required surgical repair or pericardiocentesis and perforations were successfully sealed in all cases. In-hospital mortality was 0%.

Abstract
Coronary artery perforation (CAP) is a rare but lethal complication of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs), and its incidence has been increasing with advances in PCI techniques. Delayed CAP presents a highly challenging complication, as it occurs 30 min-9 days after intervention, making subsequent diagnosis and treatment difficult. We present the case of a 63-year-old male patient who underwent PCI for an obtuse marginalis II because of posterior wall myocardial infarction. Following 4 days of uneventful postoperative stay, the patient developed angina pectoris and hypotension 4 h after reinitiation of anticoagulant therapy with edoxaban. Angiography revealed distal vessel perforation from a side branch of the obtuse marginalis II. The vessel was occluded using autologous fat embolization via a microcatheter, resulting in complete sealing of the perforation. After discharge, 4 weeks after the infarction, the patient started rehabilitation therapy. Distal vessel perforations are typically caused by wire damage. In our case, we also suspected distal wire perforation, which was initially not recognized possibly due to distal occlusion through the thrombotic material. The temporal correlation between the re-initiation of anticoagulant therapy and the occurrence of cardiac tamponade suggests that the thrombotic material was resolved due to the former. The management of delayed CAP does not differ from that of CAP; thus, this rare complication should be considered even days after PCI as it could prove lethal if not recognized early.

Abstract
The use of coils is fundamental in interventional cardiology and can be lifesaving in selected settings. Coils are classified by their materials into bare metal, fiber coated, and hydrogel coated, or by the deliverability method into, pushable or detachable coils. Coils are delivered through microcatheters and the choice of coil size is important to ensure compatibility with the inner diameter of the delivery catheter, firstly to be able to deliver and secondly to prevent the coil from being stuck and damaged. Clinically, coils are used in either acute or in elective setting. The most important acute indication is typically the sealing coronary perforation. In the elective settings, coils can be used for the treatment of certain congenital cardiac abnormalities, aneurysms, fistulas or in the treatment of arterial side branch steal syndrome after CABG. Coils must always be delivered under fluoroscopy guidance. There are some associated complications with coils that can be acute or chronic, that nictitates regular followed-up. There is a need for education, training and regular workshops with hands-on to build the experience to use coils in situations that are infrequently encountered.

A Novel Strategy for Emergency Treatment of Coronary Perforations by Placing a Drug-Eluting Stent before Sealing off the Leakage with a Covered Stent to Improve Long-Term Outcomes in Patients with Coronary Artery Perforations. J Pers Med 2023; 13:1542. [PMID: 38003857 PMCID: PMC10672714 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13111542] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2023] [Revised: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
We aimed to investigate the safety, feasibility, and long-term results of drug-eluting stent implantation before covered stents for treating coronary artery perforation (CAP). Between 2015 and 2020, 12,733 patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were retrospectively analyzed. The primary endpoint was 1-year target lesion revascularization (TLR), whereas secondary endpoints included the rate of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and all-cause death at 1 year. A total of 159 patients with CAP were identified during the study period, of whom 47.2% (n = 75) were treated with a covered stent (CS group) because of complex and/or severe CAP and 84 (52.8%) without (non-CS group). In the majority of patients, emergency drug-eluting stent placement before covered stent implantation was feasible (n = 69, 82%). There were no significant differences among patients treated with or without a covered stent in terms of primary or secondary clinical endpoints: a similar rate of TLR (18.67% vs. 21.43%, p = 0.6646), MACCE (25.33% vs. 22.62%, p = 0.6887), and 1-year mortality (12.00% vs. 11.90%, p = 0.9853) were identified comparing cases with covered stent implantation and without. In conclusion, our study implicates that the use of covered stents for sealing coronary perforation might not impact the 1-year clinical outcome if used properly. Moreover, the emergent use of drug-eluting stents before covered stent implantation in CAP is a safe and effective method to avoid target lesion revascularization in patients treated with covered stents.

Abstract
Coronary artery perforation (CAP) is a potentially fatal complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study aimed to investigate in-hospital, 1-year, and 3-year clinical outcomes of type III CAP during PCI in patients with ACS. The study retrospectively evaluated 118 patients with CAP and 43,226 case-control patients. Clinical, angiographic, and procedural characteristics, management, and outcomes were analyzed retrospectively at 1-year and 3-year follow-ups. The mean age of the patients was 66.5 ± 11.9 years (61.8% males). There was no significant difference in hospital mortality between the type III CAP and non-CAP groups. The all-cause mortality was 33.3% in the CAP group vs 1.8% in the non-CAP group at 1 year, and 28.3% in CAP group vs 6.9% in non-CAP group at 3 years (p = .001 for both comparisons). The procedural, clinical, and 1 and 3-year outcomes of type III CAP showed a relatively high risk of myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft, cerebrovascular event, stent thrombosis, and major bleeding at the 1 and 3-year follow-ups. In addition, non-CAP ACS patients had better survival (log-rank: p < .001, 34.29 months 95% Confidence Interval [33.58-35.00]) than type III CAP ACS patients (29.53 months 95% Confidence Interval [27.28-31.78]) at the 3-year follow-up visit.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary artery perforation is a rare but serious complication of percutaneous coronary interventions, that may eventually lead to major and fatal events such as myocardial infarction, cardiac tamponade, and ultimately death. The risk of coronary artery perforation is more significant during complex procedures as chronic total occlusions but it can occur in other circumstances such as oversized stents and/or balloons, excessive post-dilatation, and the use of hydrophilic wires. Coronary artery perforation is often not recognized during the procedure and the diagnosis is frequently not made until later when the patient develops signs related to pericardial effusion. Thus, causing a delay in management and worsening the prognosis. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of a distal coronary artery perforation secondary to using a hydrophilic guide in a young male patient of 52-year-old arab, initially presented with an ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, complicated by pericardial effusion that was treated medically with a favorable outcome. CONCLUSIONS This work highlights that coronary artery perforation is a complication that must be anticipated in high-risk situations and its diagnosis must be made early to allow adequate management.

Abstract
The left main (LM) coronary artery stenosis is associated with high morbidity and mortality and has traditionally been treated with coronary artery bypass grafting. However, in recent years, advancements in device technology and adjunctive pharmacotherapy have led to the widespread use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) as a treatment for unprotected LM lesions. Despite this, LM lesions are often complex, involving distal bifurcation and heavy calcification, which increases the risk of coronary perforation (CP) during PCI. In addition, the use of rotational or orbital atherectomy in severely calcified LM bifurcation lesions carries a higher risk of complications and in-hospital mortality than that in non-LM lesions. CP is a rare but potentially fatal complication of PCI, particularly in cases of Ellis grade III (CP-G3), with a high rate of cardiac tamponade and mortality. The management of CP-G3 in LM distal bifurcation lesions is challenging and requires specialized techniques. This article presents a flowchart of bail-out strategies for CP-G3 in LM distal bifurcation lesions and provides detailed procedures for each technique. Furthermore, we highlight the challenges and limitations of each technique, requiring careful management when CP-G3 occurs in LM distal bifurcation lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary artery perforation is a feared complication of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and often leads to serious adverse clinical events. AIMS We sought to develop a risk score to predict clinical coronary artery perforation in patients undergoing CTO PCI. METHODS We analysed clinical and angiographic parameters from 9,618 CTO PCIs in the Prospective Global Registry for the Study of Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention (PROGRESS-CTO). Logistic regression prediction modelling was used to identify variables independently associated with clinical perforation, and the model was internally validated with bootstrapping. Clinical coronary artery perforation was defined as any perforation requiring treatment. RESULTS The incidence of clinical coronary perforation was 3.8% (n=367). Five factors were independently associated with perforation and were included in the score: patient age ≥65 years +1 point (odds ratio [OR] 1.79, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.37-2.33), moderate/severe calcification +1 point (OR 1.85, 95% CI: 1.41-2.42), blunt/no stump +1 point (OR 1.45, 95% CI: 1.10-1.92), use of antegrade dissection and re-entry +1 point (OR 2.43, 95% CI: 1.61-3.69), and use of the retrograde approach +2 points (OR 4.02, 95% CI: 2.95-5.46). The resulting score showed acceptable performance on receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (area under the curve [AUC]: 0.741, 95% CI: 0.712-0.773). The Hosmer-Lemeshow test indicated a good fit (p=0.991), and internal validation with bootstrapping demonstrated good agreement with the model with observed AUC: 0.736 (95% bias-corrected CI: 0.706-0.767). CONCLUSIONS The PROGRESS-CTO perforation score may be a useful tool for predicting clinical coronary perforation during CTO PCI.

Coronary perforation incidence, outcomes and temporal trends (COPIT): a systematic review and meta-analysis. Open Heart 2022; 9:openhrt-2022-002076. [PMID: 36270713 PMCID: PMC9594565 DOI: 10.1136/openhrt-2022-002076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 09/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Coronary perforation is a potentially life-threatening complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We studied incidence, outcomes and temporal trends following PCI-related coronary artery perforation (CAP). METHODS Prospective systematic review and meta-analysis including meta-regression using MEDLINE and EMBASE to November 2020. We included 'all-comer' PCI cohorts including large PCI registries and randomised controlled trials and excluding registries or trials limited to PCI in high-risk populations such as chronic total occlusion PCI or cohorts treated only with atheroablative devices. Regression analysis and corresponding correlation coefficients were performed comparing perforation incidence, mortality rate, tamponade rate and the rate of Ellis III perforations against the midpoint (year) of data collection to determine if a significant temporal relationship was present. RESULTS 3997 studies were screened for inclusion. 67 studies met eligibility criteria with a total of 5 568 191 PCIs included over a 38-year period (1982-2020). The overall pooled incidence of perforation was 0.39% (95% CI 0.34% to 0.45%) and remained similar throughout the study period. Around 1 in 5 coronary perforations led to tamponade (21.1%). Ellis III perforations are increasing in frequency and account for 43% of all perforations. Perforation mortality has trended lower over the years (7.5%; 95% CI 6.7% to 8.4%). Perforation risk factors derived using meta-regression were female sex, hypertension, chronic kidney disease and previous coronary bypass grafting. Coronary perforation was most frequently caused by distal wire exit (37%) followed by balloon dilation catheters (28%). Covered stents were used to treat 25% of perforations, with emergency cardiac surgery needed in 17%. CONCLUSION Coronary perforation complicates approximately 1 in 250 PCIs. Ellis III perforations are increasing in incidence although it is unclear whether this is due to reporting bias. Despite this, the overall perforation mortality rate (7.5%) has trended lower in recent years. Limitations of our findings include bias that may be introduced through analysis of multidesign studies and registries without pre-specified standardised perforation reporting CMore research into coronary perforation management including the optimal use of covered stents seems warranted.

Abstract
Coronary artery perforation is a feared complication of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Our objective was to describe the incidence, mechanisms, treatment, and outcomes of coronary artery perforation during CTO PCI. We analyzed the baseline clinical and angiographic characteristics and procedural outcomes of 10,454 CTO PCIs performed in 10,219 patients between 2012 and 2022. The incidence of coronary perforation was 4.9% (n = 503). Patients who experienced coronary perforation were older and were more likely to have had previous coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Procedures that resulted in perforation were more complex, with higher Japanese CTO and Prospective Global Registry for the Study of Chronic Total Occlusion Intervention (PROGRESS-CTO) scores. Technical (66% vs 87%, p <0.001) and procedural (55% vs 87%, p <0.001) success rates were lower in perforation cases. The CTO target vessel was the most common perforation site (66%). The retrograde approach was responsible for the perforation in 47% of cases, and guidewire exit was the most common perforation mechanism. The proportion of Ellis class 1, 2, 3, and 3 -"cavity spilling" coronary perforations was 20%, 41%, 28%, and 11%, respectively. In 52% of perforations, 1 or more interventions were required: prolonged balloon inflation (23%), covered stent deployment (21%), coil embolization (6%), and/or autologous fat embolization (4%). Tamponade requiring pericardiocentesis occurred in 69 patients (14%). The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events was higher in perforation cases (18% vs 1.3%, p <0.001). In conclusion, coronary artery perforation occurred in 4.9% of CTO PCIs performed by experienced operators and was associated with lower technical success and higher in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular events.

Abstract
Coronary artery perforation during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a rare but severe complication which has been associated with a high rate of major adverse outcomes and is potentially fatal. We report a case of a 70-year-old male who presented with an anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Coronary angiogram revealed a proximal left anterior descending (LAD) artery occlusion. Successful PCI was performed with stenting of the LAD. However, subsequent attempts to retrieve a jailed diagonal branch inadvertently led to distal coronary perforation of the LAD. After failed attempts to tamponade the perforation with prolonged balloon inflation, this was successfully sealed with the MicroVascular Plug (Medtronic) system. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of such an application in the coronary system. This may prove to be a viable alternative in closure of distal coronary perforations.

Abstract
Distal coronary perforation is a rare complication of percutaneous coronary intervention. While temporary balloon occlusion of the proximal coronary artery is the first step in perforation management, more definitive treatment options include covered stent implantation for large vessel perforations or fat/coil embolization for distal vessel perforations. We report a case of an 81-year old man who presented with inferior/posterior ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography showed a 90% distal left circumflex artery (LCx) stenosis. Percutaneous coronary intervention of the culprit vessel was challenging due to balloon uncrossable lesions in LCx and was complicated by distal coronary perforation due to excessive wire movement. Two Axium coils were delivered using a Finecross microcatheter but failed to seal the perforation. We performed fat embolization (proximal to the coils) that successfully sealed the perforation. In selected cases where coil embolization alone fails to seal a distal coronary perforation, combined coil and fat embolization might help achieve hemostasis.

Abstract
Aortic injury represents a rare but potentially fatal complication of invasive coronary angiography. The authors present a series of four patients with aortic injury after invasive coronary angiography and intervention (mean age, 71 years; three women). In three patients, CT showed subintimal staining from undiluted contrast media (CM) in the aortic root with no communication to the aortic lumen. Short-term follow-up CT showed resolution of CM staining in all patients. Classic aortic dissection occurred in one patient, with undiluted CM from invasive angiography in the false lumen in the aortic root. Preliminary evidence suggests that iatrogenic injury from invasive coronary angiography resulting in subintimal CM staining of the aortic wall at CT, without evidence of communication with the lumen of the aortic root, shows favorable short-term outcome.

Abstract
Objectives The present study aimed to investigate the short- and long-term clinical outcomes of self-made polyurethane-covered stents (PU-CS) in patients for the management of coronary artery perforation (CAP) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Background Coronary artery perforation is reckoned as a serious complication in PCI and associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Covered stents have been used for treating the life-threatening CAP during PCI. But in some catheterization laboratories, no commercial CS is immediately available when there is an urgent need for CS to rescue the coronary rupture site. Methods We retrospectively identified 24 patients who underwent 31 self-made PU-CS implantations due to CAP in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, from June 2015 to January 2020. Results The total procedural success rate of CS to seal the perforation was 79.2%. Nine patients (37.5%) developed cardiac tamponade, of which 8 patients (33.3%) underwent pericardiocentesis and 4 patients (16.7%) underwent cardiac surgeries. Except for 4 cardiac death cases (16.7%), none of myocardial infarction (MI), target lesion revascularization (TLR), and stent thrombosis (ST) was reported during hospital stay. Data from 22 patients (91.7%) were available at 610.4 ± 420.9 days of follow-up. Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) occurred in 6 patients (27.3%), including 5 cases of cardiac death and one TLR case. Conclusions Self-made PU-CS demonstrates high rates of successful delivery and sealing of severe CAP during PCI. Although the in-hospital mortality remains high after PU-CS implantation, the long-term follow-up shows favorable clinical outcomes, indicating the feasibility of PU-CS in treating CAP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The modes of failure of coronary polymer-jacketed guidewires have received limited study. METHODS We queried the Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database between January 2011 and December 2020 for reports on coronary polymer-jacketed guidewires and retrieved 254 reports. RESULTS The most common failure mode was failure of the guidewire to cross (36.2%), followed by guidewire fracture (35%), peeling of the polymer jacket (13.8%), failure to retrieve the guidewire (13.8%), and guidewire unraveling (4.7%). Guidewire fracture was more common with soft (37.3%) compared with stiff (23.8%) guidewires. Failure of retrieval was only reported with soft guidewires (9%). Coronary perforation and dissection occurred in 19.7% and 7.9% of the reports, with more reports with stiff as compared with soft guidewires (45.2% vs. 14.6% for perforation and 21.4% vs. 5.3% for dissection). CONCLUSIONS The most common failure modes of polymer-jacketed guidewires during percutaneous coronary intervention are failure to cross the lesion, guidewire fracture, and peeling of the polymer jacket. Coronary perforations were more common with stiff whereas wire fracture was more common with soft polymer-jacketed guidewires.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on the mechanisms of failure of covered coronary stents [Graftmaster, PK Papyrus] are limited. METHODS We queried the "Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience" (MAUDE) database between August 2018 (when the PK Papyrus stent was FDA approved) and December 2020 for reports on covered coronary stents. RESULTS We identified 299 reports in the MAUDE database (after excluding duplicates, peripheral vascular reports, and incomplete records) (Graftmaster n = 225, PK Papyrus n = 74). The most common mechanism of failure of covered stents was failure to deliver the stent (46.2%), followed by stent dislodgement (22.4%) and failure to seal the perforation (19.7%). Failure to deliver the stent was more often reported with Graftmaster compared with PK Papyrus (59.1% vs. 6.8%, p < 0.001). Stent dislodgement was more often reported with PK Papyrus compared with Graftmaster (75.7% vs. 4.9%, p < 0.001) and was managed by device retrieval or by crushing the stent. CONCLUSIONS The most common failure mechanisms of covered stents are failure of delivery, stent dislodgement, and failure to seal the perforation. Failure of delivery was more common with Graftmaster, while stent dislodgement was more common with PK Papyrus. Further improvements in covered stent design are needed to optimize deliverability and minimize the risk of complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The outcomes of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in octogenarians and nonagenarians have received limited study. METHODS We compared in-hospital outcomes of CTO PCI between patients ≥80 vs. <80-years-old in 6233 CTO PCIs performed between 2012 and 2020 at 33 U.S. and international centers. RESULTS There were 415 octogenarians and nonagenarians in our study (7% of the total population). Compared with younger patients, octo- and nonagenarians were less likely to be men (73% vs. 83.2%, p < 0.0001) and more likely to have atrial fibrillation (27% vs. 12%, p < 0.0001) and prior coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) (43% vs. 29%, p < 0.0001). They were more likely to have CTOs with moderate/severe calcification (71% vs. 46%, p < 0.0001), but had similar mean J-CTO scores (2.5 ± 1.3 vs. 2.4 ± 1.3, p = 0.08). They had lower technical and procedural success (82.2% vs. 86.3%, p = 0.0201; 80.3% vs. 84.8%, p = 0.016, respectively) and higher incidence of in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular events (3.4% vs. 1.8%, p = 0.021). On multivariable analysis PCI in octo- and nonagenarians was not independently associated with technical and procedural success or with in-hospital MACE. CONCLUSION CTO PCI is feasible in octo- and nonagenarians, although success rates are lower, and the risk of complications is higher compared with younger patients, likely related to more comorbidities and higher coronary lesion complexity.

The prevalence, management and outcomes of coronary artery perforations during percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with or without acute coronary syndromes. Coron Artery Dis 2021; 32:610-617.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary artery perforation (CAP) is an uncommon but serious complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The aim of this study was to compare early and late clinical outcomes of CAP in patients with or without acute coronary syndromes (ACS). METHOD A retrospective review was made of the procedural records of 15 878 patients who underwent PCI at two large tertiary centers between January 2012 and December 2018. A total of 51 (0.32 %) CAP cases were identified. RESULTS Of the 51 CAP cases, 26 (51.0%) patients had ACS and 25 (49%) patients had stable coronary artery disease (CAD). The major cause of perforation was stenting (43%). Cardiac tamponade was more frequent in the ACS group than stable CAD group (34.6 vs. 8%; P = 0.024). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the overall 30-day cardiovascular mortality rate was higher in patients with ACS than stable CAD (23.1 vs. 0%; P = 0.011). At the 3-year follow-up examination, no statistically significant difference was determined between the two groups in respect of all-cause mortality (36.1 vs. 28.4%; P = 0.262). Multivariable Cox regression analysis demonstrated left ventricular ejection fraction (hazard ratio, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.89-0.99; P = 0.033) but not ACS at presentation (hazard ratio, 1.39; 95% CI, 0.37-5.20; P = 0.628) as a predictor of mortality at 3 years. CONCLUSIONS Early clinical outcomes following CAP, including cardiac tamponade and 30-day cardiovascular mortality, were significantly worse in patients with ACS compared to stable CAD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Coronary artery perforation (CAP) is an infrequent (<1%) complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), that can lead to dramatic consequences, including tamponade and death. The incidence of CAP is higher (4-9%) in chronic total occlusion (CTO) PCI due higher complexity of these lesions and the techniques used to recanalized them. AREAS COVERED In this Expert Review, we discuss the specific features of CTO PCI predisposing to CAP. We also describe the typical procedural scenarios in which CAP can occur and provide a universal management algorithm. Currently available devices and techniques for CAP treatment are presented in detail. Finally, we discuss imaging support for diagnosis of pericardial effusion in CAP as well as medical and surgical management. EXPERT OPINION With increasing volumes and complexity of CTO PCI, the incidence of CAP is likely to rise. Adherence to good catheterization laboratory practices, availability of dedicated equipment to seal CAP, perform pericardiocentesis, and provide hemodynamic support, as well as adequate training, are pillars for the prevention and optimal management of CAP during CTO PCI.

Abstract
Chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary interventions can be highly complex and are associated with an increased risk of complications, such as perforation, acute vessel closure (which can lead to rapid haemodynamic compromise if it involves the donor vessel), and equipment loss or entrapment. Awareness of the potential complications and meticulous attention to equipment position and patient monitoring can help minimise the risk of complications and allow prompt treatment should they occur.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The PAST-PERF registry was initiated to collect data on the PK Papyrus covered stent, a second-generation device for the treatment of coronary artery perforations with enhanced mechanical properties, but with limited available data. METHODS Patients treated for coronary artery perforations with the PK Papyrus stent at 14 international centers were retrospectively identified. The primary effectiveness outcome was successful sealing of the perforation. The primary safety outcome was a composite of all-cause mortality, definite or probable stent thrombosis, myocardial infarction and target lesion revascularization. RESULTS Among the 94 included patients, 72.3% (68/94) had Ellis type III and cavity spilling perforations. Complete sealing was achieved in 93.6% (n = 88), and no sealing could be achieved in 3.2% (n = 3, including one patient with a geographical miss and one patient in whom the device could not be implanted). Pericardiocentesis was required in 25.0% (n = 23), emergency cardiac surgery was needed in 7.6% (n = 7), acute stent thrombosis was observed in 1.1% (n = 1), and in-hospital mortality occurred in 11.7% (n = 11). The median follow-up duration was 283 (IQR:40;670) days. At 6 and 12 months, the incidence of the primary safety endpoint was 26.6% [95%CI:18.6;37.1] and 32.0% [95%CI:22.8;43.4], mortality 15.0% [95%CI:9.0;24.6] and 19.0% [95%CI:11.3;30.0], and target lesion revascularization 5.5% [95%CI:2.0;14.6] and 7.7% [95%CI:3.1;18.2]. Two definite stent thrombosis occurred, one during the procedure and one on post-procedure day 233. CONCLUSIONS The registry demonstrates favorably high rates of successful stent delivery and sealing of coronary perforations using a second-generation covered stent with low target lesion revascularization and stent thrombosis rates. ANNOTATED TABLE OF CONTENT The PAST-PERF registry demonstrates favorably high rates of successful stent delivery and sealing of coronary perforations using a second-generation covered stent with low target lesion revascularization and stent thrombosis rates. Specifically, complete sealing was achieved in 93.6% of patients (n = 88/94), and no sealing could be achieved in 3.2% (n = 3, including one patient with a geographical miss and one patient in whom the device could not be implanted). The 12-month mortality was 19.0% [95%CI:11.3;30.0], the rate of target lesion revascularization was 7.7% [95%CI:3.1;18.2], and two definite stent thromboses occurred (one during procedure and one on post-procedure day 233).

Abstract
Complications of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may have significant impact on patient survival and healthcare costs. PCI procedural complexity and patient risk are increasing, and operators must be prepared to recognize and treat complications, such as perforations, dissections, hemodynamic collapse, no-reflow, and entrapped equipment. Unfortunately, few resources exist to train operators in PCI complication management. Uncertainty regarding complication management could contribute to the undertreatment of patients with high-complexity coronary disease. We, therefore, coordinated the Learning From Complications: How to Be a Better Interventionalist courses to disseminate the collective experience of high-volume PCI operators with extensive experience in chronic total occlusion and high-risk PCI. From these conferences in 2018 and 2019, we developed algorithms that emphasize early recognition, effective treatment, and team-based care of PCI complications. We think that an algorithmic approach will result in a logical and systematic response to life-threatening complications. This construct may be useful for operators who plan to perform complex PCI procedures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This review aims to evaluate the adverse outcomes for patients after treatment with covered stents. BACKGROUND Coronary perforation is a potentially fatal complication of percutaneous coronary revascularization which may be treated using covered stents. Studies have evaluated long-term outcomes among patients who received these devices, but hitherto no literature review has taken place. METHODS We conducted a systematic review of adverse outcomes for patients after treatment with covered stents. Data from studies were pooled and outcomes were compared according to stent type. RESULTS A total of 29 studies were analyzed with data from 725 patients who received covered stents. The proportion of patients with chronic total occlusions, vein graft percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), intracoronary imaging and rotational atherectomy were 16.9, 11.5, 9.2, and 6.6%, respectively. The stents used were primarily polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) (70%) and Papyrus (20.6%). Mortality, major adverse cardiovascular events, pericardiocentesis/tamponade and emergency surgery were 17.2, 35.3, 27.1, and 5.3%, respectively. Stratified analysis by use of PTFE, Papyrus and pericardial stents, suggested no difference in mortality (p = .323), or target lesion revascularization (p = .484). Stent thrombosis, pericardiocentesis/tamponade and emergency coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) occurred more frequently in patients with PTFE stent use (p = .011, p = .005, p = .012, respectively). In-stent restenosis was more common with pericardial stent use (<.001, pooled analysis for first- and second-generation pericardial stents). CONCLUSIONS Cases of coronary perforation which require implantation of a covered stent are associated with a high rate of adverse outcomes. The use of PTFE covered stents appears to be associated with more stent thrombosis, pericardiocentesis/tamponade, and emergency CABG when compared to Papyrus or pericardial stents.

Coronary perforation complicating percutaneous coronary intervention in patients presenting with an acute coronary syndrome: An analysis of 1013 perforation cases from the British Cardiovascular Intervention Society database. Int J Cardiol 2019; 299:37-42.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The evidence base for coronary perforation occurring during percutaneous coronary intervention in patients presenting with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS-PCI) is limited and the specific role of acute pharmacology in its clinical presentation unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS Using the BCIS PCI database, data were analysed on all ACS-PCI procedures performed in England and Wales between 2007 and 2014. Multiple regressions were used to identify predictors of coronary perforation and its association with outcomes. Propensity score matching was used to evaluate the association between differing P2Y12 inhibitors or glycoprotein inhibitors (GPI) and CP. During 270,329 ACS-PCI procedures, 1013 coronary perforations were recorded (0.37%) with a stable annual incidence. In multiple regression analysis, covariates associated with increased frequency of coronary perforation included age, female gender, CTO intervention, number and length of stents used, and rotational atherectomy use, whilst differing P2Y12 inhibitors were not predictive. Using propensity score matching, use of a GPI was independently associated with tamponade (OR 1.50, [1.08-2.06], p = 0.014). The adjusted odds ratios for all clinical outcomes were adversely affected by coronary perforation. CONCLUSIONS Coronary perforation is an infrequent event during ACS-PCI but is closely associated with adverse clinical outcomes. GPI use was associated with higher rates of tamponade.
