Finding Safe Haven for a Migrated Left Main Coronary Stent: A Novel Bail Out Technique.

We describe a case of left main stem (LMS) stent dislodgement and embolization over the guide catheter after an intravascular ultrasound-guided percutaneous coronary intervention to an LMS osteal stenosis. After the initial intravascular ultrasound-guided assessment, the patient underwent percutaneous coronary intervention with 2 overlapping drug-eluting stents. After post-dilation, it was observed that the proximal LMS stent had migrated over the guide catheter proximally and dislodged from its original deployment in the LMS.
