Résumé
Angioplasty has taken an important place in treating cardiovascular ischemic lesions, and stenting has become a widespread routine practice. Stent loss is a complication that, although rare, can result in stent migration into a vessel with dramatic complications due to occlusion. We report the case of a 77-year-old woman who underwent surgery to remove a loose stent that had migrated into the right distal ulnar artery just before the superficial palmar arch following coronary angioplasty. The stent could be removed with the help of fluoroscopy and microscope while preserving vascular integrity. Different therapeutic strategies can be discussed in front of a stent lost in the general circulation, and those must be approached on a case by case basis.
