Abstract
- Septal vessel perforation followed by septal hematoma is a rare complication of retrograde approach for treatment of coronary chronic total occlusions, possibly leading to septal rupture. We report 2 cases of patients with septal vessel perforation and subsequent hematoma successfully treated with autologous fat embolization. Such technique is inexpensive, omnipresent, and relatively easy to perform.<br />L’hematome septal qui suit la perforation septale est une complication rare de l’approche par voie retrograde dans le traitement des occlu- sions totales chroniques d’une artère coronaire qui peut mener à la rupture septale. Nous rapportons deux cas de patients ayant subi une perforation septale et un hematome subs equent qui ont et e trait es efficacement par embolisation par graisse autologue. Cette technique est peu coûteuse, omnipresente et relativement facile à r ealiser.
