| Summary: | Abstract relevance. Acute occlusion of the left coronary artery trunk is an extremely dangerous type of acute myocardial infarction (ami), which is lethal in most cases due to the high incidence of cardiogenic shock. The only possible way to save the patient’s life is emergency coronary artery revascularization. Considering an importance of the left coronary artery trunk in the occurrence of lethal complications, the special importance is given to the quality of implantable coronary stents.Materials and methods. The article presents the results of endovascular treatment with russian-made calypso stents in 9 patients with acute myocardial infarction, caused by acute thrombosis of the left coronary artery trunk.Results The technical and clinical success of the procedure was noted in all cases. Within 8±3.5 months after the treatment, there was no a single case of thrombosis or repeated stenosis in the stent.Conclusions Endovascular revascularization of the acute occlusion of the left coronary artery trunk using calypso stent is an effective and safe method of treatment which improves the survival of patients. |
