Delayed coronary perforation four days after percutaneous coronary intervention with subsequent cardiac tamponade: A case report.

Coronary artery perforation (CAP) is a rare but lethal complication of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs), and its incidence has been increasing with advances in PCI techniques. Delayed CAP presents a highly challenging complication, as it occurs 30 min-9 days after intervention, making subsequent diagnosis and treatment difficult. We present the case of a 63-year-old male patient who underwent PCI for an obtuse marginalis II because of posterior wall myocardial infarction.
