[Use of the Palmaz-Schatz stent in the acute phase of myocardial infarction in a patient with cardiogenic shock].
A 56-year-old female patient underwent myocardial revascularization with three saphenous bypass grafts. One month after surgery she had an acute myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock and was treated with a Palmaz-Schatz stent implantation in the left main coronary artery (that was occluded) and a PTCA of the graft to the right coronary artery. The in hospital outcome was uneventful and angiographic study after six months showed no restenosis and important improvement in the left ventricular function.
