Abstract
Stenting of the infarct-related artery during the acute phase of myoca rdial infarction is a controversial issue. We report a case of primary multiple stent implantation in 2 vessels in a patient with AMI, doubl e vessel total occlusion and cardiogenic shock. No intracoronary throm botic therapy was given. Stenting provides an optimal angiographic res ult which may decrease the need for repeat interventions. Primary sten ting in AMI deserves further investigation.
