title: The Absorb Limits.
abstract: A patient presented with an inferior non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction and a tight lesion on the distal right coronary artery. After stent implantation, a large scaffold malapposition was observed by optical coherence tomography. This case emphasizes the importance of not expanding a bioresorbable vascular scaffold more than 0.5 mm over its nominal size.
