    • Abstract:
      Longitudinal stent deformation, described in some older stent geometries, prompted design modifications such as reinforcing struts on the proximal end. However, distal edges of stents-also subject to longitudinal force-have not been reinforced. We report a case of guidewire entrapment that deformed the distal edge of a new-generation stent during percutaneous coronary intervention, and we describe our efforts to restore the stent to its initial length. This case highlights the risk of manipulating equipment beyond the position of a newly deployed stent, the ongoing potential for deformation of distal edges in newer stent platforms, and the advisability of treating distal lesions before proximal ones.
