Multimodal Imaging of Post-Stenting Mycotic Coronary Pseudoaneurysm Complicated by Device Fracture and Myocardial Abscess

Multimodal Imaging of Post-Stenting Mycotic Coronary Pseudoaneurysm Complicated by Device Fracture and Myocardial Abscess

Mycotic coronary aneurysm and pseudoaneurysm are rare infective complications of percutaneous coronary interventions, associated with poor prognosis.
