Patients with chronic kidney disease are at elevated risk for adverse events after traditional coronary angiography and percutaneous intervention with contrast media. The case presented in this report highlights the potential benefits of zero-contrast multivessel percutaneous coronary intervention in a patient presenting with a non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome.

Zero-contrast IVUS-guided complex PCI in a patient with NSTE-ACS and severe renal impairment.

Cardiovascular Department, ASST Bergamo Ovest, Treviglio, Italy.

A 76-year-old male with severe comorbidities and multiple cardiovascular risk factors including stage IV chronic kidney disease presents with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction. An ultra-low contrast invasive coronary angiography using the DyeVert system and iso-osmolar contrast agent revealed a multivessel disease with heavy calcifications involving the left main stem and its bifurcation requiring a complex percutaneous coronary intervention. Because of the high risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury, a zero-contrast intervention was performed using intravascular ultrasound guidance and dedicated stenting techniques with optimal imaging, clinical, and renal outcomes.

Coronary artery disease is highly prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is a risk factor for contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI), a complication of cardiovascular procedures that require contrast administration (e.g., coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI]).

Background: Contrast agent allergy may result in severe adverse events that prevent the use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in some patients, especially for those with complex lesions.

Case Summary: We describe a 59-year-old man who presented with the multi-vessel disease and suffered from contrast allergy. The patient refused to have coronary artery bypass grafting surgery, thus two-stage PCI procedures without iodinated contrast media were performed after a detailed discussion with the heart team, including a chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesion in the proximal left anterior descending artery.
