Objective: To investigate the efficacy of bare metal stent for treating focal coronary artery aneurysm complicating with severe stenosisin single coronary artery. Methods: This retrospective analysis was performed in 7 patients who were diagnosed as local coronary artery aneurysm complicating with severe stenosis(≥70%) in single coronary artery and treated with bare metal stent during the period from December 2012 to June 2015 in Fuwai Hospital. All 7 patients were male with age of (62±11) years old. During the interventional operation, the narrow parts were pre-expanded,and all patients received bare metal stents implantation to cover aneurysms.The clinical and imaging data of patients immediately post procedure and at postoperative follow-up were collected to evaluate the clinical efficacy. Results: There were 5 cases of left anterior descending aneurysms and 2 cases of right coronary artery aneurysms. The diameter of aneurysm was (5.21±1.28)mm, and the length was (13.71±3.88)mm. There was intracranial vortex in coronary arteriography immediately after intervention.Proximalstenosis of coronary artery aneurysm was disappeared,and the distal blood flow was TIMI class 3.There were no signs of aortic dissection and thrombus formation.During 6(6 16) months follow-up, the aneurysms were disappeared,and there were no major adverse cardiovascular events which including myocardial ischemia, acute myocardial infarction, revascularization,bleeding,and death for all patients. Conclusion: Initial experience shows that double-layer bare metal stents implantation for patients with localized coronary artery aneurysm complicating with severe stenosis in single vessel is safe and effective.
