Abstract

Coronary perforations occurring during percutaneous coronary intervention can be life-threatening and usually requires immediate intervention to seal the perforation. Here, a case of chronic large persistent left anterior descending artery perforation into the right ventricle that was left alone without any significant clinical sequela is presented. This case is the first case report of this interesting benign complication followed by a review of the literature of reported cases with coronary perforation in any cardiac chamber.<br />Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest None.<br /> (Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc.
