The risk of coronary rupture during stent implantation arises from: (i) a thin intima of the bridged artery; (ii) a thin myocardial layer toward the right ventricle; (iii) a smaller LAD diameter in the MB; (iv) high infl ation pressure in the balloon. Perforation with a coronary fi stula resolving spontaneously within several months is one of the possible scenarios. We report a case of a coronary fi stula between mid LAD and right ventricle after MB stenting in a patient with STEMI, with spontaneous angiographic deterioration after several days. Stent graft implantation in case of a coronary fi stula with increasing fl ow is an eff ective therapeutic concept.Myocardial bridge - stenting - acute myocardial infarctionStenting a myocardial bridge: A wrong decision in STEMI?
