Coronary stent embolization of peroneal artery.

Embolization of coronary artery stents is a rare but well-recognized complication of percutaneous coronary intervention.

Furthermore, stents lost to the periphery are often never found. Here, we describe a case of an embolized stent to the peroneal artery which was accurately located using on-table fluoroscopy and ultrasound duplex.
