Abstrakt: We report the case of a redo Ross surgery complicated by an ostial left circumflex occlusion requiring emergent percutaneous coronary intervention. The latter was complicated by coronary perforation treated by two covered stents with V-stenting technique. After immediate success, the clinical course was marked by acute stent thrombosis requiring emergent coronary bypass. Ostial left circumflex perforation is a rare and potentially fatal complication that is challenging to manage. V stenting technique with two covered stents could be used as a life-saving procedure, but is associated with a high thrombotic risk. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
