Abstract

An 80-year-old man underwent percutaneous coronary intervention of the left anterior descending coronary artery for intractable angina. During catheter advancement, he experienced an iatrogenic perforation of the radial recurrent artery that was successfully managed by covered stent placement in the radial artery, effectively occluding the radial recurrent branch.
