Concurrent coronary, bilateral iliac and left renal artery direct stenting.
We describe a patient who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention combined with bilateral iliac and left renal artery angioplasty during the same sitting. Stenting of the coronary and peripheral arteries was performed employing the "direct stenting" technique. No complications occurred. The patient was discharged 2 days after the intervention and remains asymptomatic, leading a fully active life during 1 year of follow-up. To our knowledge, unstaged coronary stenting combined with direct stenting of the renal and both common iliac arteries has not been reported previously in India.
