Abstract

A 68-year-old man underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty for unstable angina. During the balloon inflation, coronary artery dissection with total occlusion was noted and recanalized by coronary stenting. The serial electrocardiograms revealed ST segment and T wave changes without elevation of the cardiac isoenzyme, which is suggested to represent acute pericarditis following the coronary intervention.
