title: Percutaneous coronary intervention of a saphenous vein graft ostial stenosis in a patient with Bentall procedure.
abstract: Composite graft replacement of the aortic root and coronary reimplantation with or without coronary artery bypass surgery is the standard treatment for a variety of aortic root pathologies. Previously, percutaneous coronary intervention of either reimplanted coronary arteries or left/right coronary artery through cabrol graft has been described in post-Bentall patients. We describe percutaneous coronary intervention of a saphenous vein graft ostial stenosis in a patient with previous Bentall procedure and a vein graft to right coronary artery, which was complex and challenging.
