title: Occluded stent in an extraluminal plane of the right coronary artery.
abstract: Coronary angiography demonstrated an occluded stent outside the lumen in the right coronary artery of a patient presenting with an acute coronary syndrome. Computed tomography confirmed the extraluminal location of the occluded stent. This finding is likely due to deployment of the stent in a dissection plane.
