In patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome without ST elevation, both FFR and OCT imaging may be necessary to adequately interrogate patients with intermediate and ambiguous left-main coronary stenosis. © 2020 The Authors. Clinical Case Reports published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.

Bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) have been designed to overcome long-term limitations of metallic drug-eluting stents including permanent metallic “caging” that might trigger late coronary adverse events. Here, we report for the first time a case of 72-year gentleman with previous coronary artery disease, treated by successful implantation of BVS (Absorb, Abbott Vascular) due to significant stenosis of internal pudenda artery and erectile dysfunction. After 2 years, BVS completely resorbed and there were no signs of pudendal artery restenosis on CT scan, whereas blood flow and sexual function improved. © 2018 Blackwell Verlag GmbH
