Case Summary

Never withdraw the stent, Deploy there only, Carefulwithdrawal of stent in calcified vessel with proper alignment of guiding. Tryto withdraw stent, guide wire and guiding catheter as a total assembly. Snaringof stent from Left Main Coronary Artery technical expert required. Contralateral  femoral puncture  and  simultaneous wiring  if vessel goes into threaten occlusion beforeretrieval of previous wire. As previous wire will help in easy tracking down ofadditional wire. Double wire criss-cross technique. Crush the stent againstwall with another stent. Sub acute stent thrombus need aggressive management.
