“…Recently, catastrophic perforations in native vessels and saphenous vein grafts have also been managed successfully with autologous vein cover stents [25][26][27][28][29][30] or using stents with a PFTE coating, 31,32 and this approach was used successfully in 1 patient in the pesent series. While covered stents are useful in sealing a ruptured coronary vessel, they must be used with caution in regions of significant side branching and they do not appear to reduce restenosis.…”

“…Until recently, the only therapeutic alternative was surgical aneurysm ligation and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Two recent reports describe a novel percutaneous technique using an autologous vein graft-coated stent for the closure of such an aneurysm [10,11]. This type of coated stent was developed and described by Stefanadis et al [14] and is currently under investigation to address stenting limitations such as restenosis and thrombosis [15,16].…”

“…Until now, most of these aneurysms warranted operative intervention, consisting of coronary ligation and distal bypass [5]. Recently, a novel percutaneous transcatheter technique using autologus vein graft-coated stent has been described for the treatment of such coronary artery aneurysms [10,11]. We describe a case of coronary artery aneurysm formation after recanalization of a totally occluded artery with laser wire and stenting and its closure by this novel technique.…”

“…Autologous vein graft-coated stent is a novel type of coronary endoprosthesis developed in our institution, consisting of a conventional stent coated by an autologous vein graft. Application of this type of coated stent both by our institution [14][15][16][17][18][19] and other institutions [20][21][22] yielded very encouraging results. However, taking into consideration the superior long-term results of arterial bypass grafts compared with the vein grafts [1], coating of a stent with an arterial graft instead of a vein graft seems very appealing.…”
